Abstract

This book chapter offers a comprehensive review of early Islamic (7th-11th centuries CE) pottery in Jordan and its interaction with neighbouring regions. The study is largely based on publish material and follows two themes: wares and technology, and forms and function. The ceramics of early Islamic Jordan were varied and developed rapidly in style and purpose, which reflected the swift changes to the social and cultural environment of the time.
