Abstract (english)
Marble finds relative to the statuary, architectural features and inscriptions unearthed during the archaeological investigation of the public area in the Roman town of Aeclanum (Province of Avellino, Campania-Italy), offered an opportunity to undertake an archaeometric study in order to determine their constituent marble species and the sites where they were quarried, so to be able to delineate the socio-economic dynamics closely linked to the circulation of marble and its supply to centres in the hinterland of Campania in Roman times. The techniques used in the study included minero-petrographic (OM on thin section and XRD on powders) and isotopic analyses (SIRA, on powders). The combined petrographic-isotopic analyses showed a clear prevalence of Lunense marble in architectural structures, in floor and wall facings, in inscriptions and in statuary, with the sole exception of the armoured statue of Emperor M. Aurelius, of the corresponding paludamentum in Pentelic marble, and finally of the fragment of a female portrait sculpture in Parian marble. The conspicuous presence of Lunense marble is in effect associated with two clear phases, the first linked to building activities carried out in Aeclanum in the Augustan Age, after the territory belonging to the town became part of the patrimonium principis, and the second linked to its development in the Antonine Age, following the upgrading of the town to Colonia Aelia Augusta Aeclanensium.
