Abstract
The aim of this paper is to analyze some problems related to the circulation of Red Lustrous Wheel-made Ware in the Eastern Mediterranean areas and especially in Anatolia. Important considerations will regard the recent excavations of the Late Bronze Age levels at Yumuktepe/Mersin in Plain Cilicia. Here, the studies carried out on a small but representative selection of red fine ceramics have permitted our increased knowledge of matters pertaining to Red Lustrous Wheel-made ware’s “imitations”, “imports” and “coarse variations”. Finally, these data will be used to shed more light and pose new questions over the appearance and the diffusion of this ware in Southern Anatolia and generally in the territories under Hittite cultural control.
