| Comment | straight-walled pots: In the earlier levels (up to 5), organic tempered paste with thin grassy inclusions in a ratio of 20 % was used. Also, cattle dung was used as temper in the earlier levels. The temper was chosen according to the finishing process --> e.g. thin vegetal material was used in well burnished wares. Technology and shaping: in the earliest levels, coiling, pinching and slab-building methods were used. imported pottery: black burnished ware without organic temper, a few had impresso-decoration (made by fingernails) similar to Mersin-Yumuktepe in the Early Neolithic. chevron decorations, vertically disposed stylized snakes, made by wiping-back; dark colored wares were fired under a reducing condition; in the upper fills of Level 5 were some red slipped shards (they firstly occur around 6300 BC here and needed a new way of controlled firing techniques); maybe these shards penetrated from there from upper levels. |
