Vessels: Inside and Outside. Proceedings of the Conference EMAC '07, 9th European Meeting on Ancient Ceramics, edited by K. T. Biró, V. Szilágyi and A. Kreiter, 2009

This article concentrates on ceramic production and trade during the transitional, late Byzantine-early Islamic period (6 th -9 th centuries AD) in Palaestina Tertia (southern areas of Israel and Jordan), and examines the way the political transition is associated with various socio-economic changes affecting the material culture traditions. ED-XRF bulk compositional analyses were carried out on transitional period ceramics from Jabal Harûn, Khirbet edh-Dharih, 'Aqaba, Elusa and Abu Matar in Beersheva. The results show that, despite the absence of direct evidence for post-Byzantine pottery kilns, local ceramic production continued in the transitional period, but some of the sites probably also shared production or exchanged cooking utensils. In addition, containers such as the 'Aqaba-amphorae have a wide distribution in the region, attesting to long-distance inland trade.

Ongoing research being undertaken at the Institute of Historical Research of the National Hellenic Research Foundation intends to record and study the evidence of the material culture of Crete, an area that flourished during the pre-industrial era, when it was under Venetian rule (13th-17th centuries), as encountered through the related archival evidence. At that period the island was open to the influences of the western culture and especially of the currents of the Italian Renaissance, which fact resulted in the flourishing of the cultural and economic-social sectors, primarily in the cities. From the rich archival material, unpublished as well as published – namely the inventories of the interiors of the houses, workshops and monasteries, the dowry agreements and the wills – comes information specifically on the objects of domestic, handicraft and agricultural use and the relevant tools. Although this approach reveals a wealth of evidence, details on ceramics, as it will be shown, are actually rather limited. The poster focuses on the testimonies regarding the various clay objects. Reference is made as to the circumstances under which clay vessels are encountered in the written sources, as well as to the categories of ceramics mentioned and to specificities concerning details of their manufacture, decoration and origin. In addition, attempts are made to link – whenever possible – particular references to particular objects, as known from the archaeological record. Given the nature of the archival sources, these data are, obviously, also linked to individual persons and places, leading to further revelations not only on specific aspects of the ceramics’ life-cycle but also on the participation of the clay objects in the formation of social relations and on the identities of people of the time.

Pottery from a late 1st century AD workshop and kilns located in Beirut (site BEY 015), in a previous programme of work chemically analysed and proven to be products of the workshop, are here presented in full (a complex range of at least five amphora types, including the 'Beirut amphora' and the miniature 'carrot' amphora/Schöne-Mau XV, as well as kitchen wares and drains). 'Carrot' amphorae and other Levantine forms found in Gaul and included in the analyses, some found to be Beirut products, others not, are also presented. The possible contents and the complex regional typologies of the amphorae of BEY 015 are also discussed. Étienne R and Mayet F 2002 Salaison et sauces de poisson hispaniques. Paris.

The second volume of this specialized continued collection of research papers “Glazed Pottery of the Mediterranean and the Black Sea Region, 10th – 18th Centuries” contains studies of mass archaeological materials — glazed pottery — from a vast region encompassing countries from the Mediterranean, Black Sea, Eastern Europe, Central Asia, Far East and Eurasian steppes, dated by the High and Late Middle Ages. The goal of this continued edition is to attract the attention of the medievalists to glazed pottery and, particularly, to introduce earlier unknown archaeological complexes with glazed pottery and results of various physical-chemical studies of ceramic clays and glazes for scientific discussion. The volume includes contributions from Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, France, Greece, Italy, Lebanon, Russia, Romania, Serbia, Spain, Turkey, Ukraine, USA, Uzbekistan and is meant for specialists in history, archaeology, ceramic studies, ethnography, museum studies, history students and all those interested in medieval material culture.
