Building on recent studies in late-classical, hellenistic and early imperial pottery, this catalogue to a 2015 Freiburg exhibition attempts to tackle the subject from a variety of angles. Developed within the context of a universitary course the exhibition discusses some 80-odd exhibits, several of them previously unpublished and/or never on show before. Nine accompanying essays explore developments and features of post-classical symposion culture throughout the ancient Mediterranean.

In 1979, Hans Eschebach argued that this complex would have been developed in 7 phases from a Greek palaestra with bath section of the 5th c BC into the sophisticated Roman baths that were buried by Vesuvius in AD 79. This paper shows that this developmental model must be significantly revised. It is demonstrated, based on a typological and historical assessment of Eschebach’s phases and on excavations carried out between 2016 and 2018, that the Stabian Baths were only built after 130/125 BC as a state-of-the-art Roman-type bath building. The conclusion provides a preliminary reconstruction of the original building

The area of the Stabian Baths plays a key role in this debate. Based on a series of excavations in the palaestra of the baths, Heinrich Sulze (1940) and particularly Hans Eschebach (1970s) reconstructed a defensive wall and parallel ditch in this area. Eschebach also identified an Archaic street and city gate in the northern part of the baths. While Eschebach's reconstruction was challenged by later research, the evidence and his interpretation of his trenches have never been systematically reassessed. It is the aim of this paper to fill this crucial gap. Based on the re-exposition of Sulze's and Eschebach's archaeological contexts and new excavations it is shown that no traces of an Archaic wall, robber trench, palisade, or ditch or of any other Archaic features can be securely identified in the area of the Stabian Baths. Focus here is on a key trench in the palaestra (Area III) that had been excavated by both Sulze and Eschebach and provides the most important insights into the development and use of this terrain, from the Bronze Age to A.D. 79. The archaeological contexts are described in detail and interpreted particularly with a view to the early history of Pompeii, and more briefly with a view to the development of the baths.

It focussed on age diversity and its impact on studying and working conditions. The event took place in the university's Archaeological Collection, where participants had the chance to experience and discuss how perceptions of age are continuously shaped by cultural, social, political, and artistic ideas.
Organized by Felix Wittenzellner, Karin Kleinn, Mariana Vargas Ustares and Aniela Knoblich

Für den Workshop der Projektgruppe SurFace sind demnach vor allem jene Bild-Bereiche von Interesse, die aufgrund ihrer spezifischen Verfasstheit in höchst unterschiedlicher Weise solche Irritationen hervorrufen.
Das können Unfertigkeiten oder Brüche sein, die den Herstellungsprozess perpetuieren und die materialen Eigenschaften des Bild-Artefakts hervorheben.
Es kann sich auch um Modifikationen handeln, deren Eingriffe die Texturierung beschädigen und so die vermeintliche Emanzipation des Bildes von der Oberfläche ›stören‹.
Nimmt man zudem Bilder jenseits ihrer figurativen, perspektivischen oder narrativen Formierung als Artefakte in den Blick, so kommt Ornamenten in ihrer strukturierenden sowie irritierenden Kapazität Bedeutung zu. Sie sollten nicht als randständiges Beiwerk missverstanden, sondern in ihrer Relevanz für das jeweilige Verhältnis von Fläche und Raum, Figur und Grund oder Schrift und Bild diskutiert werde
