Abstract
Excavation of the Punic farm at Truncu’e Molas (Terralba, Sardinia) in the summer of 2007 allowed us to recover a substantial amount of pottery and stone artefacts as well as bio-archaeological remains, despite the partial destruction of the site. These now enable us to study the different food preparation techniques in use in this Punic rural context during the 4th-3rd centuries B.C. The so-called cooking pots, casseroles and tannur offer information about cooking methods, while the bio-archaeological remains suggest that the site’s inhabitants had specialised in wine-production and obtained much of their food from the surroundings area.
