The volume contains 13 contributions dealing with ancient and medieval economy from an archaeological perspective based on the standardization of material evidences. Standardization has always been a problematic subject for archaeologist dealing with economic studies in pre-industrian periods. In this volume we deal with this subject from the study of the pottery containers that brought liquid commodities from the different Mediterranean regions during the 1st millenium BC until the late Middle Ages. Der Band bietet 13 Beiträge über Wirtschaft im Altertum und Mittelalter, aus einer archäologische Perspektive begründet in die Standardisierung von Materialstudien.
