The Circulation of ceramics in Messina during the Late Middle Ages. Updates and summary data archaeological research carried out in recent decades by the Superintendency of Cultural Heritage of Messina allows us to trace the first lines of a picture that is extremely interesting and that reveals more and more clearly the role of protagonist played by the city of the Strait inside of the economic system of the low medieval Mediterranean. The ceramics, imported and locally produced, confirm the cultural syncretism that characterized this period, a sign of a lively economy, rich in exchanges and transmissions of knowledge and techniques.

Keywords: Messina, urban excavations, Late Medieval Ceramics, Norman Age Ceramics, Byzantine Wares, local productions
