The Kaolin Clay Medieval Pottery of Măgura Hill Moigrad (Sălaj County). A Few Notes on Finds of the Type from Transylvania and the Banat

Summary/Abstract: The archaeological site that yielded the pottery discussed here lies on a volcanic origin hill (Măgura Hill) located within the boundaries of the place at Moigrad. Among discovered medieval potshards also count a few exemplars of kaolin clay fabric. Regrettably, the pottery dealt with here is not available in large quantities, while intact specimens are missing. Since only vessel fragments (of various sizes) were discovered, identification of pottery forms was difficult is this case rather. As previously mentioned no intact vessels are available, while the formal features of the discovered pottery fragments (mouth diameter, mouth/rim and wall mouldings, base diameters) seem to evidence the following pottery forms: pots, jars and cups.
