Abstract
Nos contextos da Idade do Ferro do interior
do território baixo alentejano documenta-se um
número considerável de elementos de importação
relacionáveis com as redes de comércio mediterrâneas,
presentes quer em contextos domésticos quer
funerários, quer ainda religiosos. A análise destes
elementos – amuletos egípcios, adornos de cornalina
e pasta vítrea, recipientes de perfumes em
cerâmica e vidro, cerâmicas gregas e contentores
anfóricos – a partir de uma perspectiva contextual
permite definir e caracterizar pautas de consumo
diferenciadas que apontam para uma utilização
destes elementos exógenos no quadro de práticas
sociais de âmbito local.
In the Iron Age contexts of the interior of the Lower Alentejo region a considerable number of imported elements has been documented which can be related to the Mediterranean commercial networks, and which are present both in domestic and funerary contexts, as well as in religious ones. The analysis of such elements – Egyptian amulets, carnelian and glass adornments, perfume containers both ceramic and in glass, Greek pottery and amphorae – from a contextual perspective permits to define and characterize the differentiated consumption patterns which point to the use of this exogenous elements in the frame of local social practices.
