Abstract
AbstractThe paper discusses the inscriptions of two ancient artifacts, the fragment of an Egyptian wine jug (Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest), and a terra sigillata bowl made by Pacatus (Aquincum Museum, Budapest), and seeks to situate them in the history of trade signs. In ancient Egypt, signs predominantly indicated details such as the place and date of production, and the quality of the product, while in Rome trade signs conveyed information concerning the origin of the product through the craftsman or workshop.
