Abstract:
This paper re-integrates decoration with the function of the object and its social context in Late Antiquity. It examines the way that decoration prescribes the function of objects, for example, through the representation upon an object of the activity for which the object is intended to be used. It is suggested that in some instances decoration may also be matched to the interior decor of a room, i.e., to the context within which an object was used. These correlations of decoration with function and context correspond to Roman ideas of ‘appropriateness’ in decor and, in turn, contribute to th

The paper draws attention to data that confirm the establishment of craft areas and commercial activity providing evidence of the production and diffusion of pottery in the territory of Dobruja (southeastern Romania) in the 10–12th century. So far, local pottery production has been proven by four pottery workshops, two tools used to create decorations, fifteen single- or dual-chamber pottery kilns, a few semi-finished vessels, and production waste. Some clues on the distribution area of pottery made in Dobruja were obtained by analysing the decoration and fabric of vessels with potter’s marks.

Abstract:
The eastern staircase of Apadana – the Royal Achaemenid Audience Hall at Persepolis was decorated with numerous reliefs depicting various people subjected to the king’s rule, paying homage and bringing gifts. Among these, the Lydian group is one of the delegations carved in the lower part of the staircase. This group was led by one of the officers of the Achaemenid court. The participants carried amphorae, bowls and armlets and were also bringing horses and a chariot. The amphorae and arm rings were represented distinctly with beautiful and unique animal decorations.

Throughout history, ceramics have been the most abundant artifacts in archaeological discoveries. Within the Neolithic period in present-day Bulgaria, skilled artisans applied additional materials to decorate their pottery, evolving in composition and application techniques such as painting or incrustation. This study is focused on the investigation of white pigments used in decorating Early and Late Neolithic pottery from Madzherito, Kaloyanovets, and Hadzhidimitrovo—archaeological sites located in the Thracian Valley, Central South Bulgaria, affiliated with the cultural groups of Karanovo I

The article presents the characteristics of three fragments of ceramic vessels that were found during the investigations of the medieval stronghold in Grabin, within Ostróda county. Their uniqueness stems from their decoration, which was made using a stamp technique (ceramics decorated with a stamp decoration are called StempelverzierteKeramik), probably with a bracteate type coin. In order to be able to present these artefacts as fully as possible, it is also necessary to present the context of their discovery, the history of the site as well as an attempt at interpretation.

Abstract The two most prestigious and technically challenging types of ceramic decoration used in the Islamic world during the sixth–seventh/twelfth–thirteenth centuries were mīnāʾī and lustre. By far the rarest type of mediaeval ceramic wares are the pieces featuring both types of overglaze decoration on the same vessel. This article examines the corpus of twenty-two sherds, including repaired and several previously unpublished examples. They are studied together to show the two main types of wares and their connection to other categories of mīnāʾī ware.

Abstract:
During the Western Zhou Dynasty, based on the Yin rituals, the Zhou people made moderate adjustments to social ideology by introducing the idea of honoring virtues, reorganizing the ritual orders, and adjusting the sacrificial rites, thereby formulating the social thought of “revering the ancestors and respecting virtue” and “respecting heaven and protecting the people”. This social ideology influenced the modelling and decoration of bronze wares. The shape of the bronze focuses more on practical function and formal beauty, the combination of utensils pays more attention to the combination of

The operation of the workshop is dated to the first half or the middle of the 12th cent., and its production is identified in large closed vessels (stamnia) and small jugs for everyday use.
