Our study seeks to explore the beginnings and spread of glazed ceramic technologies across Islamic lands by focusing on the evidence from the southern Levantine coast. We selected 98 glazed ceramic samples recovered through stratified excavations of four sites along the southern Levantine coast. These ceramic samples include glazed tableware (especially the ones that do not feature the use of opaque glaze) and cooking vessels that are representative of the range of ware types dating to the early Islamic and Crusader periods (9th to 13th centuries CE) in the region. All samples were subjected to technological reconstruction based on the data we generated using petrographic analyses and scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive spectrometry. A subset of 30 glazed ceramics were submitted for portable laser ablation (pLA) sampling for lead isotope analysis – making our study one of the first to test this sampling method on lead-based glazed materials.

另一面的釉料不那么不透明：埃及和黎凡特南部釉面陶瓷生产从早期伊斯兰时期到十字军时期的发展


我们的研究旨在通过关注黎凡特南部海岸的证据，探索釉面陶瓷技术在伊斯兰土地上的起源和传播。我们选择了 98 个釉面陶瓷样品，这些样品是通过对黎凡特南部海岸的四个遗址进行分层挖掘而发现的。这些陶瓷样品包括釉面餐具（尤其是那些不使用不透明釉的餐具）和烹饪器皿，它们代表了该地区可追溯到早期伊斯兰和十字军时期（公元 9 至 13 世纪）的器皿类型。所有样品都根据我们使用岩相分析和扫描电子显微镜能量色散光谱生成的数据进行了技术重建。提交了 30 个釉面陶瓷子集用于便携式激光烧蚀 （pLA） 采样以进行铅同位素分析——这使我们的研究成为首批在铅基釉料上测试这种采样方法的研究之一。
