"Non destructive analysis of a red figure vase of uncertain attribution from Falerii Veteres"

A red figure calyx crater of uncertain attribution, found in the Celle necropolis of Falerii Veteres, and several other red figure vases coming from different Italic and Attic workshops were analysed in situ with X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy. The comparison of the concentrations of the minor elements present in the ceramic body, in particular Cr, Ni, Sr, seems to support the attribution of the vessel to an Athenian workshop.
