Summary
Special pottery shapes (phialai and dinoi) with polychrome or relief decoration are the focus of this study. These vessels, deposited in Etruscan graves as “prestige pottery,” reveal the central role of southern Etruria in the cultural relationships between Anatolia, the eastern Aegean, and the Italic peninsula in the Orientalizing and Archaic periods. Caere and Vulci appear to be catalysts of many of these novelties, with a gradual handover from the first center to the second over the decades at the turn of the seventh and sixth centuries BCE.
