Hrnčířské areály ve Starém Městě u Uherského Hradiště: úvod do problematiky místní keramické produkce ve vrcholném středověku

Over the past 50 years, rescue excavations in Staré Město (Old Town) near Uherské Hradiště have unveiled several sites indicative of pottery production from the 13th to the 15th century, including numerous pottery kilns. The focus of this research project is primarily on the shifts in production technology and the sourcing of raw materials. The study has successfully documented the evolution of local ceramic production from traditional methods to those characteristic of the high medieval period. This was achieved through various natural science techniques, which helped identify the use of local Tertiary clays and define the primary typological and morphological characteristics of the regional pottery production.
