Bencze Zoltán - Papp Adrienn: Török kerámia egy Dísz téri sziklagödör feltárásából 35-49

TÖRÖK KERÁMIA EGY DÍSZ TÉRI SZIKLAGÖDÖR FELTÁRÁSÁBÓL shoulder. It is characteristic of these pots that they were the widest at their bellies. There is a scratched line decoration at their neck, characteristic of the 15

th-16

th centuries. It is a widely-spread, characteristic vessel type of the age. For example, at Csepel similar vessels were found in a burnt house which the person leading the excavation dated also to the end of the 15

th beginning of the 16

th centuries. They represent the most characteristic type of pots of late meadiaeval times. The number of glasses found is significantly less as compared to the amount of pots. Luckily the two were find unbroken. (Figs. 10.1-2 and 11.1-2, inventory numbers 99.101.8.5., 99.101.8.6.) There are tall, thin table vessels made of red material, their parallels are known from the 15

th century from Buda and Kőszeg. However the shoulders of the ones from the 16

th century are not so wide and their bodies are less narrow towards their feet as that of the ones from a century earlier. Glasses made of similar shape and material were found in Ozora, and in the suburb of Buda called Szentpétermártír. The dating of the ceramic finds is facilitated by the fact that there were two Iznik faience pieces within this limited material. Both bowls can be dated to the middle of the 16

th century and it coincides with the dating of the rest of the vessels. The spreading of the Turkish shape vessels made from white materials and the identification of their masters needs further investigation, and at the same time, raises an interesting problem. 41
