Özet:

As from Neolithic period, unglazed ceramics and pots have been produced in different techniques and forms depending on geographical conditions and the needs and necessities of human beings. The aim of this study is to introduce filters that belong to a group of fairly unrecognized unglazed ceramics of Turkish ceramics. A large number of filter pieces have been captured in Hasankeyf excavations, especially among the ones in Büyük Saray. However, undamaged filters are few. This sort of clay type filters can be seen in Islamic ceramics as from early Islamic period. These filters are placed into cylindrical neck of jugs. They are in different sizes depending on width of the neck. These small surfaces are placed in a narrow and closed area that cannot be seen directly. Different decorations in openwork technique are done on these surfaces.
