本研究从四个考古遗址(贝洛沃德、PLOčNik、Gradište-iđJoš和Potporanj)采集了大量的陶瓷和地质样本,属于新石器时代和陶器文化现象(约公元前5350至4600年)的Vinča文化现象,以追踪区域内和区域间的陶器生产传统,重点是膏体配方。这项研究的结果表明,Vinča陶器制造传统具有一般的技术相似之处,但由于环境限制和刻意选择,两者存在显著差异。这些结果与新石器时代/陶器时代巴尔干半岛的其他岩石学研究结果的比较进一步强调,Vinč陶器反映了属于Vinč文化保护伞下的众多实践社区。这一点在为陶瓷生产选择和操纵原材料的不同过程中可见一斑。因此,Vinča陶器组合之间的差异反映了人与风景之间不同的互动模式以及不同的技术传统。总体而言,这种方法使我们能够从强调陶瓷的社会建构性质的角度来讨论物质文化的异同问题。
This study applies thin-section petrography to a wide selection of ceramic and geological samples from four archaeological sites (Belovode, Pločnik, Gradište-Iđjoš, and Potporanj) belonging to both the Neolithic and Chalcolithic phases of the Vinča culture phenomenon (c. 5350 to 4600 BCE) to track intra- and interregional traditions of pottery production with a focus on paste recipes. The results of this study suggest that Vinča pottery manufacturing traditions possess general technical similarities, with significant differences resulting from both environmental constraints and deliberate choices. The comparison of these results with those of other petrographic studies in the Neolithic/Chalcolithic Balkans further emphasises that Vinča pottery reflects numerous communities of practice that fall under the umbrella of 'Vinča culture'. This is visible in the varying processes of selecting and manipulating raw materials for ceramic production. Therefore, differences between Vinča pottery assemblages reflect various models of interaction between people and their landscape as well as different technological traditions. Overall, this approach allows us to discuss the problem of similarities and differences in material culture from a perspective that emphasises the socially constructed nature of ceramics.
