Acknowledgments

ac k now l e dg m e n ts during the summer of 2014, Ted Peña introduced me to a set of curious dolia at Regio I Insula 22 at Pompeii, entrusting me to design my own research proj ect as part of the Pompeii Artifact Life History Proj ect; little did I know that those after noons meticulously documenting dolia would lead to years of fascination with these vessels.The proj ect began to expand and take shape in 2015 as a doctoral dissertation, and it has grown and benefited enormously over the years from the generosity and spirit of many individuals and communities.It is a pleasure to acknowledge them here.The Gradu ate Group in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology, as well as the Center for the Tebtunis Papyri and the Department of Classics at the University of California, Berkeley, formed my home base during the early years and encouraged me from day one to expand my horizons and pursue multi-and interdisciplinary approaches.Ted's vast knowledge of Roman pottery and his critical eye and attention to detail helped me better clarify and support my observations.Carlos Noreña provided invaluable guidance and helped frame and shape the project, pushing me to expand on the broader significance of the data.I was most fortunate to have spent 2016-2017 as the recipient of the Andrew W. Mellon Pre-doctoral Rome Prize at the American Acad emy in Rome.They say being at the American Acad emy in Rome changes your life and perspective for a reason.Fellows and friends at the acad emy provided good com pany, cheer, and a warm and intellectually stimulating community.Seeing and exploring the city through their eyes helped me notice new things and pre sent my findings to a broader audience.Three generous scholars I had the good fortune to meet through the American Acad emy in Rome greatly influenced this proj ect: Kim Bowes, Lisa Fentress, and Lynne Lancaster gave generous feedback, and their insights prompted me to confront why this proj ect matters and how to make that come across most effectively.Lindsay Harris organized helpful writing groups to workshop our ideas and drafts.Giulia Barra secured permissions to access diff er ent sites and materials during the early, critical stages of the proj ect.The American Acad emy library, especially the support of Sebastian Hierl, was instrumental in accessing the Cosa Archive.The acad emy remained my home base in my final year as a gradu ate student, supported by the University of California Dissertation Year Fellowship, and has continued to be an invaluable resource for me and my proj ect over the years.Since I joined the faculty in 2018, Prince ton University has provided an intellectually stimulating community.I would like to thank my colleagues in the Department of Classics for their support, encouragement, advice, and enthusiasm for my proj ect over the years, especially
