The process of making vessels during the Late Bronze Age at the Kalnik – Igrišče site

U radu se donose rezultati arheološke analize tehnika oblikovanja kasnobrončanodobne lončarije koja je provedena na keramičkim ulomcima s nalazišta Kalnik – Igrišče. Riječ je o keramici iz posljednje faze kasnoga brončanog doba ili mlađe faze kulture polja sa žarama. U radu se razmatraju tragovi nastali tijekom postupka izrade posude, od tehnika gradnje, obrade površine, ukrašavanja do postupka pečenja posuda. Rezultati arheološke analize pokazuju da je primarna tehnika izrade posuda na samom kraju brončanog doba bila osnovana na starim tradicijama kakve su uočene još tijekom starije faze kulture polja sa žarama, no uočene su i nove, drugačije prakse.The paper presents the results of the archaeological analysis of Late Bronze Age pottery making techniques, carried out on the potsherds from the Kalnik – Igrišče site. It is pottery from the last phase of the Late Bronze Age or the younger phase of the Urnfield culture. The paper discusses the trace evidence of the making of vessels, from building techniques, surface treatment and decoration, to the process of firing vessels. The results of the archaeological analysis show that the primary vessel making technique at the very end of the Bronze Age was based on the old traditions, already observed in the older phase of the Urnfield culture, but new and different practices have also been observed
