ABSTRACT

This paper resumes the debate on the Archaeology of Image from two directions: the first is the presentation of the concept, and the second is the proposal for its development based on the association between image and material culture. In this sense, we discuss two basic elements in the archaeological treatment of images, based on the notion of material culture: the concepts of support and context. Finally, considering the previous theoretical debate, we present a case study: the Mediterranean introduction of some images of a particular object - the amphora of Mississippi 1977.3.115 attributed to the Nikoxenos Painter.
