Özet:

This article consists of a group of ceramics less known in Turkish ceramic art history, with white pasted, glazed, and ornamented with mould pressed-carving technique. Samples with the same features are found in the archaeological excavations, imported from different regions such as Iran and Syria. Ceramics with these attributes have been produced in Anatolia/Hasankeyf for a short while and with limited amounts. The findings within this concept establish a specific ceramic group both with their fritted white paste and mould pressed-carving ornament techniques. Small tableware such as bowl, plate found at the ceramic atelier revealed in Hasankeyf excavations at the place where named as the Bay Palace (Sahil Sarayı) and consisting of two complexes, displays similar features with XII-XIII. century Iranian and Syrian fritted paste-mold press technique cups. Also broken pieces and kiln material, proves that glazed ceramics with mould-press technique had been produced in Hasankeyf too.
