Technological innovations in ceramic production and other crafts are hallmarks of the Chalcolithic period (4500–3600 BCE) in the southern Levant, but details of manufacturing traditions have not been fully investigated using the range of analytical methods currently available. This paper presents results of a compositional study of 51 sherds of ceramic churns and other pottery types from the Chalcolithic site of Shiqmim in the northern Negev desert. By applying complementary thin section petrography, instrumental geochemistry and calcareous nannofossil analyses, connections between the raw materials, clay paste recipes and vessel forms of the selected ceramic samples are explored and documented. The study indicates that steps in ceramic manufacturing can be related to both technological choices and local geology. Detailed reporting of the resulting data facilitates future comparative ceramic compositional research that is needed as a basis for testable regional syntheses and to better resolve networks of trade/exchange and social group movement.

以色列内盖夫沙漠北部 Chalcolithic Shiqmim 的陶瓷成分:利用薄片岩相学、仪器地球化学和钙质纳米化石研究技术和来源

陶瓷生产和其他工艺的技术创新是黎凡特南部铜石器时代(公元前 4500-3600 年)的标志,但尚未使用目前可用的分析方法范围全面研究制造传统的细节。本文介绍了对来自内盖夫沙漠北部 Shiqmim 铜石遗址的 51 块陶瓷搅拌器和其他陶器类型的成分研究结果。通过应用互补的薄片岩相学、仪器地球化学和钙质纳米化石分析,探索和记录所选陶瓷样品的原材料、粘土糊配方和容器形式之间的联系。该研究表明,陶瓷制造的步骤可能与技术选择和当地地质有关。
