Comment | Especially in Level 3 upper phase the organic tempered paste increases to 35-40%. Mica inclusions appear together with thin vegetal temper, e.g. on highly burnished Black Burnished ware. The previous chevron decor is replaced by incisions. Red slipped ware increases, and 2 different sorts of slip occur: either coarse reddish slip, or a thin close to purplish red, both fired under highly oxidizing conditions; the pottery production changes: more diversification of shapes, e.g. bowls with carinated bases; dark surfaced vessels and Black Burnished vessels were fired under reducing conditions; the coiling method is almost gone in Level 3 and only used to shape rims or necks; there is a larger variety in techniques than before: pinching (for simple shapes), slab building or beating to shape larger vessels. Especially slab building is used on carinated bowls; at the very end of Level 3, incised geometric decor occurs; |
