Chapter I. Introduction
1.1 Significance of the study
Production of glazed ceramics is an important and dynamic technology that can be easily traced through the longevity of the product. Chemical, isotopic, macroscopic and microscopic analysis of this class of materials gives researchers a wide range of evidence of their production and use. By examining the final product, one can reconstruct the choice of raw materials by the artisan in the past, the potential sources of these materials and methods they were used in the manufacture of fine glazed pottery. Study of the origin and technology of glazing Pottery can also provide insight into trade networks as well as broader cultural and technological networks where artisans worked (Matin, 2020)
Both physical ceramics and ceramic technology have been shown to be transferred between regions or groups through cultural contact and trade. The introduction of nonlocal ceramics has been shown to influence local production of ceramics in many ways. These include, but are not limited to 1) imitation of decorative styles using preexisting technologies, 2) innovation of local technology to imitate nonlocal styles more accurately, 3) direct adoption of nonlocal technology, or 4) through more complex integration of specific characteristics of the imported ceramics with local pottery traits to produce innovative ceramics that often encode complex messages (Franklin and Schleher, 2012). Before accurately characterizing the local ceramics and the effects of imported ceramics on local production, the nonlocal and local ceramics must be distinguished (Franklin and Schleher, 2012). The products of trade sometimes can be identified through visual analysis; however, compositional and isotopic analysis of the ceramics distinguish them more accurately. Identifying original production locations of nonlocal ceramics allows for the reconstruction of exchange networks (Franklin and Schleher, 2012).
