Fabrics of Malta: Systematic fabric studies on Maltese pottery have a relatively short history. In 2000 B. Bruno and C. Capelli published a first paper dealing with three fabrics, identified, on the basis of archaeometric analyses, among two amphorae types of the Late Republican and Early Imperial period.
