This new issue of the Egyptian Ceramics Liaison Bulletin ( BCE 31) presents in a first part the latest research with its "Regional Journey". It is enriched again this year with the contribution of recent archaeological work. The first two articles concern the Mediterranean coast and offer chronotypological ceramic syntheses, associated with petrographic analyses. The first characterizes the amphora productions of the Ptolemaic and Roman periods produced on the shores of Lake Mariout (cf. Mai Abdelgawad, Assem Bahnasy, Valérie Pichot, Aude Simony ). Thanks to the examples unearthed at Taposiris Magna, the second article researches the origin of an amphora imported from the end of the Roman period, in the 3rd century AD, called Proto-Late Roman 1 / Proto-LR1 (cf. Julie Marchand, Joachim Le Bomin, Paul Reynolds ). The other contributions present specific ceramic artefacts and are ordered according to geography: a synthetic study of Neolithic ceramics from the end of the 5th millennium to the beginning of the 4th millennium from the site of Samara in the Delta (cf. Frédéric Guyot, Christiane Hochstrasser-Petit ), the presentation of Old Kingdom ceramic assemblages from specific archaeological contexts – stores and dwellings – unearthed in the funerary complex of Rêdjedef at Abu Rawash (cf. Sylvie Marchand ), a functional study of New Kingdom funerary ceramics from the excavations of North Dashour (cf. Kazumitsu Takahashi ), an evaluation of ceramic artefacts from the Ptolemaic and Roman periods unearthed during the early excavation of the Greek bath of the Serapeum in the city of Krokodilopolis in Fayoum (cf. Yahya Mahmoud ), the presentation of ceramic artefacts from a tomb dated to the 18th dynasty located in Wadi 300 in the Theban region (cf. Sherif Abdelmonein ), an iconographic study of Middle Kingdom terracotta offering dishes discovered in the necropolis of Qubbet el-Hawa (cf. Cristina Lechuga Ibanez, José Manuel Alba Gomez ), and finally the painted decorated ceramics of the Ptolemaic period from the site of Ghozza in the Eastern Desert (cf. Jennifer Gates-Foster, Melanie Godsey ). The second part of the book includes a first study on a rare ceramic vase, dated to the beginning of the Old Kingdom, probably functioning like a watering can (cf. Ashraf Senussi, Zeinab Suleiman ). Finally, the last article proposes a methodological framework for archaeologists in the study of traces of use on ceramic vessels (cf. Pauline Debes, Axelle Brémont ).
