ACHAEMENID BOWLS FROM SEYİTÖMER HÖYÜK

Abstract

This paper presents a general review of Achaemenid bowls, followed by an analysis of diagnostic pottery from Seyitömer Höyük. The bowls named as Achaemenid Bowls were the most popular drinking bowls used in the Persian Empire. Beside the examples, which were generally made of valuable metals like gold, silver and bronze, there are also glass and ceramic imitations of these metal products. Up to the present time, twenty-three sherds have been typologically categorized as Achaemenid bowls. Seventeen of these fragments will be presented and discussed in this study. All these fragments have been grouped based on their fabric color as Red Ware and Gray Ware and belong to shallow and deep types. With the exception of three sherds, which come from the Hellenistic level, all examples have been found in the Achaemenid levels. The usage of these bowls started as early as the 5th century BC at Seyitömer Höyük and continued on into the Hellenistic period. For the time being it is impossible to identify the centre of production for these examples, but their small quantity suggests that they may have been imported from other centres.
