The “Domenico Ridola” NationalArchaeological Museum in MateraThe oldest archaeological Museum in <strong>Basilicata</strong>(established in 1911) welcomes us in a formerClarissian convent, which was enlarged to housethe numerous findings from excavation campaignsin the territory of Matera and the province.The“Domenico Ridola”NationalArchaeologicalMuseum inMateraVia Ridola, 24 Tel. (+39) 0835.310058Opening times: Monday 2.00 – 8.00 p.m.;Tuesday - Sunday 9:00 am - 8:00 pm;Closed weekly: Monday morningsOne of the oldest sites in the world, inhabitedwithout interruption from prehistoric timesuntil the present, Matera is viewed through therudimentary arms made from ferns and obsidians,and then through ceramics that at first werebarely shaped and then became evermore finelydecorated until the breakthrough of black- andred-figure painting on vessels for banquets,weddings and funeral rites.In a passageway between caves that were inhabitedin prehistoric times, reconstructed in the new hallsof the museum, you will encounter the difficultbut ingenious art of survival practiced by people6,000 years ago, who practiced shepherding andagriculture.Welcomed by a wealth of ceramics of variousdifferent shapes, which were used in banquetsand libations as well as sacred ceremonies(purification, nuptial and funeral rites), we areimmersed in the smells, noises and probably notso-healthyenvironment of the ceramic workshopsfrom the golden era of Greek colonisation, whenthe abilities of the mother country (Attic Greece)blended harmoniously with the manual skills ofthe colonies.Red-figure kratersfrom the RizzonCollection4th century BC17
