In this episode, join Dr Maeve McHugh, Kate Robertshaw and Emily Gershman as they talk about some fantastic examples of Greek pottery we have in the collection. This pottery was made some of the most turbulent and transformative times of Greek history. We’ll discuss how these objects are silent witnesses to  Greece’s contact with the Near East in the 8th and 7th century BCE, how pottery styles developed in pre-democracy Athens, and how the images on pottery tell us so much about daily life in ancient Greece!
