² The excavations at Santa Cornelia were directed by Mr. Charles Daniels, those at Porciano by Dr. Michael Mallett and those at Santa Rufina by Lady Wheeler. I am grateful to the excavators and to Mr. Ward-Perkins for placing at my disposal all the medieval pottery found during the Survey of South Etruria.

³ I am grateful to Dr. Hans Stiesdal for allowing me to study the finds from Belmonte, Pietrapertusa and Torre Busson; and to Drs. Eric Berggren and Carl Eric Östenberg for permission to describe the pottery from San Giovenale and Luni.

⁴ I have not been able to examine all the medieval pottery from Rome. This paper takes into account the material in the Vatican Museums, the Antiquario of the Roman Forum, the Museo del Palazzo di Venezia and the bacini in the museum at SS. Giovanni e Paolo. I am indebted to the late Guy Ferrari O.S.B. (Vatican Museums), Prof. G. Carretoni (Roman Forum) and the abbot of SS. Giovanni e Paolo for permission to study the pottery in their custody.

⁶⁷ A. E. Gunther, ‘Re-drawing the Coast Line of Southern Italy,’ Illustrated London News, 18 January 1964, pp. 86–9, maintains that the site of Paestum was submerged to a depth of 12 feet when the sea invaded the coastal plain in the middle ages. The latest documentary evidence for the occupation of Paestum is 1076, when Robert Guiscard sacked the town. Gunther suggests that Paestum was then abandoned and became gradually ‘surrounded by marsh, and so disappeared under vegetation’. However, the occurrence of thirteenth century coins and fragments of Proto-Maiolica (also in the site museum) suggests that the town remained habitable until at least c. 1280.
