Emergence and Spread of a Neolithic South-Eastern European Pan-cultural Technological Tradition
This study explores the emergence and dispersal of grog-tempered pottery in south-eastern Europe, particularly southern Romania. During the second half of the sixth millennium bc , a dynamic zone emerged between the Danube and the Carpathians, facilitating the spread of innovations through multiple communication routes. Among these innovations, grog-tempered pottery began to appear around 5300/5000 bc and became prevalent during the fifth millenn…
Electron paramagnetic resonance and discriminant analysis of white pigment used by Early Neolithic potters in the Eastern Romanian Plain
Non-Destructive Textural Characterization of Southern Romanian Neolithic and Chalcolithic Pottery Using Digital Image Analysis on Tomographically Reconstructed Sections
Pottery is a complex archaeological material that is found ubiquitously in various spatial—temporal frameworks from all over the world; therefore, it is of great importance to archaeological research. The current paper aims to present and discuss the results obtained on a batch of Neolithic (ca. 6000–5000 BC) and Chalcolithic (ca. 5000–3900 BC) pottery sherds from Southern Romania through X-ray Computed Tomography, a non-destructive methodology t…
Reforming procedures. A methodology for archaeological experiments regarding pottery combustion structures
Over time archaeologists interested in pottery combustion structures mainly focused on analysing the ability of particular kilns to meet certain pyrotechnological criteria. Thus, their research was based on testing multiple firing techniques for achieving different combustion atmoshperes, recording and examining thermal data (maximum temperatures/heating rate/soaking time), temporal information about the firing and fuelling stages, as well as the…
Put variety in White’
The current study aims to present and discuss the results obtained by complementary archaeometric methods applied for the first time on white pigments inlaid on excised pottery of the Boian-Vidra tradition (Early Chalcolithic, c. 4900-4600 BCE). The samples came from three settlements located in Southern Romania (Sultana-Ghețărie, Vidra, and Vlădiceasca). They were selected considering that the pottery was produced in approximately contemporary s…
Between Object and Subject
The current paper aims to reveal the potential of combining multiple approaches (techno-functional analysis, experimental archaeology, and X-ray Computed Tomography) when it comes to studying unique earthenware artefacts, such as the prehistoric human-shaped pot discovered within the tell settlement from Sultana-Malu Rosu (Romania), that belongs to the Kodjadermen-Gumelnita-Karanovo VI civilization (KGK VI) which thrived during the 5th millennium…
Notă privind un suport specific culturii Boian, faza Vidra, descoperit la Sultana-Ghețărie
During the archaeological campaign of 2012 in the area of the Sultana-Gheţărie flat settlement, Mânăstirea commune, Călăraşi County, Romania, an interesting pit (C 13) was discovered and researched. That complex belonging to the Boian culture, Vidra phase, was a typical pit for these prehistoric communities. The pit contained different archaeological materials (e.g. sherds, animal bones, flint artefacts etc.). To the bottom of the pit, 18 fragmen…
