This book explores pottery making and communities during the Bakun
period (c. 5000 - 4000 BCE) in the Kur River Basin, Fars province,
southwestern Iran, through the analysis of ceramic materials
collected at Tall-e Jari A, Tall-e Gap, and Tall-e Bakun A & B.
Firstly, it reconsiders the stratigraphy and radiocarbon dates of
the four sites by reviewing the descriptions of excavation
trenches, then presents a new chronological relationship between
the sites. The book sets out diachronic changes in the the Bakun
pottery quantitatively, namely the increase of black-on-buff ware
and the gradual shift of vessel forms. It also presents analyses of
pottery-making techniques, painting skills, petrography, and
geochemistry and clarifies minor changes in the chai nes ope
ratoires and major changes in painting skill. Finally, the book
discusses the organisation of pottery production from a relational
perspective. It concludes that the more fixed community of pottery
making imposed longer apprenticeship periods and that social
inequality also increased.
