Late Bronze Age Painted Pottery Traditions at the Margins of the
Hittite State is the result of a workshop organized by the editors
at the 11th ICAANE held in Munich in 2018 with additional
contributions presented by renowned scholars working on this topic.
The Late Bronze Age in the Ancient Near East is generally marked by
a massive decline in the occurrence of painted pottery and a clear
dominance of plain ceramics. This is especially evident when
looking at Anatolia. Here, the presence of simple undecorated
ceramics is considered as the main distinguishing trait of the
dominance of the Hittite State and its material culture.
Nevertheless, at the margins of the empire, especially in Southern
and South-Eastern as well as Northern Anatolia, painted ceramics
are frequently attested and, during recent years, new findings have
come to light from a number of excavations. However, a
comprehensive analysis of this material has not yet been
accomplished. The intent of this volume is to break through the
boundaries usually imposed by the study of 2nd millennium BC
pottery production in Anatolia and to reconstruct a comprehensive
scenario concerning the appearance, evolution, and related
historical meanings of these painted pottery traditions. To this
end, 12 papers of leading specialists working on relevant material
have been collected in this book offering, for the first time, the
possibility of a deeper understanding of the phenomenon of painted
pottery in the 2nd millennium BC.
