Reviews

Challenges and enriches our understanding of the ancient economy, the Athenian vase trade and its Etruscan customers, the iconography of Attic vases, and Etruscan funerary practices."" - Denise Demetriou, author of Negotiating Identity in the Ancient Mediterranean

""Bundrick's emphasis on consumer choice is original and groundbreaking. She does not examine vases as isolated creations. By reconstructing Etruscan funerary assemblages, she demonstrates a coherence in the choice of iconographical subjects adorning the various vases deposited in a grave."" - Athéna Tsingarida, Université libre de Bruxelles
