The Red-figure fish plate from Issa

Marina Ugarković

Sažetak

During research at the eastern necropolis in ancient Issa, an interesting
- and in Croatia’s territory, unique - ceramic object was found inside
grave 66: a Red-figure fish plate. The author’s intention is to provide
a brief review of the application of this pottery form and the various
workshops in which it was produced. Based on a detailed analysis of
the plate from Issa, the author proposes dating to the latter half of the
fourth century BC, and discusses a possible production site and its
function inside burial rites. A deceased male was interred in grave 66,
while the fish plate as a grave good, together with a possible wooden
coffin as a grave structure, supplement the picture of burial customs in
Issa in the fourth century BC.1
