Ceramic Braziers From Çanakkale
Abstract
The vessels likely to be identified as braziers
or portable hearths are instruments which were shaped in agreement with the
controlled use of fire. Thanks to these hearths, in which the charcoal in
glowing state probably obtained from a burning hearth was used, foods or
beverages could be cooked or could preserve their heat throughout a meal.
Examples of the portable terracotta braziers are known in Anatolia starting
from the early periods. The terracotta braziers, numerous examples of which
were discovered at many centers such as Miletus, Pergamum, Athens, Corinth, and
Paphos, are understood to have been used widely throughout the Archaic,
Classical, and Hellenistic periods. However, their examples, dated to the late
Roman and Byzantine periods, are relatively fewer. An evaluation of the ceramic
brazier examples which are surveys were carried out on the valleys that reached
the Hellespont and in their surrounding areas will constitute the subject of
this study.
