It reconsiders the stratigraphy and radiocarbon dates, presents a new chronological relationship, and discusses diachronic changes in pottery, techniques, painting skills, petrography, and geochemistry. It also discusses the organization of pottery production and concludes that fixed community and social inequality led to longer apprenticeship periods. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 462 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03 March 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Archaeopress\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Bakun period (c. 5000 – 4000 BCE) in the Kur River Basin, Fars province, southwest Iran, is the focus of this book, which examines pottery making and communities. Through the analysis of ceramic materials collected at Tall-e Jari A, Tall-e Gap, and Tall-e Bakun A \u0026amp; B, the book explores diachronic changes in the Bakun pottery, including the increase of black-on-buff ware and the gradual shift of vessel forms. It also presents analyses of pottery-making techniques, painting skills, petrography, and geochemistry, clarifying minor changes in the chaîne opératoire and major changes in painting skill. Finally, the book discusses the organization of pottery production from a relational perspective, concluding that the more fixed community of pottery making imposed longer apprenticeship periods and that social inequality also increased.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1631g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 290 x 205 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781803270586\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TakehiroMiki","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46540927566074,"sku":"9781803270586","price":61.88,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1723211316819_book.jpg?v=1723381328","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/pottery-making-and-communities-during-the-5th-millennium-bce-in-fars-province-southwestern-iran-9781803270586","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
