Ceramic Building Materials of Velia: Description of observed fabricsThe five types distinguished by microscopic analysis are based upon one petrographical-mineralogical type (RVZ01) with its subtypes RVZ01a and RVZ01b. The fabrics show the char-acteristics generally observed with all Velinian fabrics, consisting of the lack of any car-bonatic inclusions or carbonate?pseudomorphoses,
