Abstract

This study involved clay statues, terracotta architectural elements, wall-paintings and plaster from the excavations in Old Nisa. The data collected by the Italian specialists, even if still in a preliminary form, help us to better understand the technique of production and finishing and give us an idea of the “palette” of the craftsmen in Parthian Nisa.
