Geç Bronz Çağı dökülmeyi engelleyen ağızlı kaselerin gelişimi ve seramik üretimindeki rolü

This thesis investigates the Anti-Splash Rim Bowl (ASRB) within the broader framework of Late Bronze Age ceramic production. While previous studies have primarily examined ASRBs as a sub-group of North Central Anatolian (NCA) style pottery through the lens of Hittite imperial influence and standardization, this study aims to fill key gaps by exploring their origins, production techniques, and regional distribution, including potential Early Bronze Age precedents. A multi-faceted analytical approach is employed, integrating technological typology, morphotypology, chronotypology, and quantitative methods. This methodology systematically assesses ASRBs across multiple sites, focusing on regional variations, production standardization, and contextual usage. The findings indicate that while ASRBs exhibit uniformity at certain levels, however, significant variability exists in their fabric composition, production techniques, and spatial distribution, particularly between core and peripheral regions. Additionally, the study highlights the diversity of different regional production modes, suggesting that ASRBs were shaped by localized traditions rather than a strictly centralized system.This research provides new insights into Late Bronze Age Anatolian pottery traditions by bridging ceramic analysis with broader socio-political and economic contexts. It contributes to ongoing discussions on craft specialization, technological transmission, and imperial influence in ancient Anatolia.
