The social role of Neolithic face pots
Original language description
Anthropomorphic and zoomorphic pots are widespread in all kinds of cultures around the world. We can therefore consider this topic a global one in archaeology, similarly to other topics such as caves, shell middens, megaliths, cave paintings and many more. It is, however, necessary for practical reasons to delimit their study in terms of both time and space. We are going to focus on Neolithic findings from the central European area and comparable objects from the Balkans and the ancient Near East. We work on the assumption that all pots, not only the anthropomorphic and zoomorphic ones, were personified to a certain extent and that their role in prehistoric society derived from this context.
