Talk:Levantine pottery

Verification tag
I have removed it. Here is the quote from Needler pertaining to that section: "Modern Palestinian pots, bowls, jars, jugs and cups are similar in shape to their ancient equivalents and show how persistently the potter's craft clung to tradition through the centuries. Fabric and decoration also recall ancient methods; the clay is of much the same composition and is shaped, smoothed and baked in the same way, and the surfaces are often decorated in similar painted, incised, or moulded techniques."

Arabic Potter
while reading this article, i couldnt stop but wondering of the similarities, if not, exact features between Pottery of Palestine, in the past 1400 years, and the rest of the Arab world, in tunisia, Syria, Egypt, Yemeni... etc... what about re-creating the Article under the name of Arabic pottery??

Merge
Propose to merge History of pottery in Palestine -> Pottery in Palestine. The history article is merely 36kb while this article is less than 10kb; the merged article would be much richer.GreyShark (dibra) 06:43, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
 * With no objections for more than two weeks, i'm merging as proposed.GreyShark (dibra) 10:04, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

Initial Late Neolithic ceramic period
In regard to the following passage,

/begin quote/

The time frame for the initial Late Neolithic ceramic period in the Levant has been shifting recently because of more recent discoveries of earlier pottery traditions. As the result, the time frame of about 7000-6700 BC is indicated.

These earliest pottery traditions may be known in literature as 'Initial Pottery Neolithic' in the Balikh River area of Syria and Turkey, for example Tell Sabi Abyad. Or it may be known as 'Halula I' in the Syrian Euphrates area; the main site is Tell Halula. Also, it may be known as 'Rouj 2a' in Northern Levantine Rouj basin (Idlib, Syria).

/end quote/

The sources are numerous, and more info can be found in the links. So this info should be included somehow.

 * Thank you, Jytdog. This is a rather new area of scholarship, but it's rapidly expanding. A few more adjustments may be made in the article. Y-barton (talk) 06:29, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

Petry and Albright instrumental. No?
Is there not room for a discussion about the history and development of the analysis and typology of this poterry in the region, or at least a referral to it? If so, I would be happy to find good references telling how and when the discoveries and different approaches. --פשוט pashute ♫ (talk) 09:35, 31 August 2021 (UTC) --פשוט pashute ♫ (talk) 09:59, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

A mess
Most of this is lacking citations. Reads like someone's paper, sans footnotes. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:C120:8EA6:F557:652F (talk) 04:36, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
