- Abstract
The Hispanic terra sigillata production center linked to the ancient city of Isturgi (Los Villares de Andújar, Jaén) has been subject to continuous archaeological research since the 1970s, providing significant contributions to the national and international scientific. For characterizing the Hispanic terra sigillata, it has been selected a representative random sample of pieces, which are registered by means of a complete system of registration forms and analyzed using statistical tools of description, hypothesis tests, classification and study of their morphological diversity using Jackknife to estimate statistical indicators. The results obtained show a strong association between the decorated and non-decorated versions of the ceramic class and the functionality of the pieces with their physical dimensions. From this, it could be interpreted as that the production of the ceramics pieces reached a high degree of specialization according with the function for which they were intended. Regarding the morphological diversity of both versions, it has been quantified that there was a greater diversity of forms within the non-decorated pieces with no forms being more used than the others. Conversely, the forms of the decorated pieces present a lower degree of diversity but, in this case, some forms were more predominantly used than others.
