AB  - On the basis of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectrometry and X-ray powder diffraction analyses, we present detailed mineralogical and petrographical characteristics of 63 samples of cooking and tablewares, which originate from two Medieval horizons (S1 and S2) in the Studenica Monastery, as well as of three samples of clays regarded as possible pottery raw material. The composition of the ceramic matrix is compatible with the composition of local clay and clasts that reflect the geology of the Studenica's surroundings. This indicates that almost all studied vessels are unequivocally made locally. However, four wares may represent imports because they show similarities with Byzantine sgraffito wares, and ceramics from the Peloponnese (13th century). In terms of technological and morphological characteristics, the studied pottery collection represents a standardized production. Firing temperatures, estimated according to the level of matrix crystallinity, mineral reactions, and the mode of the appearance of fracture surfaces, indicate that most of cooking wares were fired at 600-700 degrees C. All glazed wares, including tablewares and cooking pots from both S1 and S2, were fired at minimum 800-900 degrees C. Along with technological and morphological standardization the characteristics of the studied collection show knowledge of traditional skills as well as trends within the Byzantine artistic craft circle.

AB  - In this study we report results of mineralogical and petrological investigations of 12 samples, which represent raw material used for making polished stone tools from the Eneolithic archaeological site Masinske Njive (Serbia). It is located about 45 km southwest from Belgrade, within the largest Serbian coal mining field called “Kolubara”, in the close vicinity to the Starčevo and Eneolithic archaeological site Jaričište. The applied methods – optical transmitted light microscopy and SEM-EDS analyses – provided data about the composition and rock classification of the raw material and enabled important constraints on its possible origin.

AB  - Mineralogical and chemical composition as well as production methods of the pottery from Caricin Grad, a significant early Byzantine urban complex and production centre of the northern Illyricum region, were determined by multi-analytical investigations that comprised optical analysis and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS), micro-Raman and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) methods. The obtained data indicate that all investigated pottery samples were made of similar raw material that, most likely, originated from the local geological environment. Estimated firing temperatures for the cooking pots vary between 600 degrees C and 900 degrees C, while for the glazed table and storage vessels they are more uniform, about 900 degrees C. The transparent high lead glaze was obtained by direct application of lead oxide to the ceramic surface.
