Il Laterano fuori dal Laterano. Ceramiche fini, lucerne, metalli e altri materiali dalla raccolta della Pontificia Università Antonianum, 2024

the cataloging activity of the entire archaeological collection
preserved at
the Pontifical University Antonianum (from now on called “Antoniano”), carried out
on behalf of the Superintendency of Archaeology,
Fine Arts and Landscape of Rome and began with the edition
of statues and marble elements.
This second publication is useful
to deepen the knowledge of other kinds
of objects, given their large quantity, the wide
chronological period and the interest of some specimens,
always taking into consideration the context and the possible reflections that is possible
to draw from it.
The first part of the book is dedicated to the finds
undoubtedly coming from the
ancient buildings underneath the Antoniano building
(probably a domus), as also evidenced by the old plates found during the
study phase, while the second part collects the
artifacts that probably belong to the site
but on which it was not possible to find certain information. Although the material is devoid of
stratigraphic data, as it was found towards the end
of the nineteenth century during the construction works
of the Antoniano, it was possible to ascertain a
substantial homogeneity within the various
kinds of finds and the chronological correspondence
with marble statues and architectural material. This new information allows
to partially confirm what has already been hypothesized about the historical events of the area, from the time
of the great residences of the imperial age up to
the abandonment in the medieval age and to the development
of the nearby hospital of St. John.
The third section instead is aimed at study
of objects that, having arrived in the collection in unspecified moments, are easily identifiable in
as they belong to the pre-Roman era and are characteristic
of other territorial areas, in particular
Etruria and Puglia. These finds are the result of donations
and purchases, have their own coherence
and it was decided to present them separately.
