Abstract

The paper considers the results of chemical and mineralogical analysis of ceramics of different times and deposits of clay raw materials of Central Yakutia. 7 ceramic fragments were examined, and a chemical and mineralogical analysis of three deposits of clay raw materials of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) was performed. The clay raw materials of Yakutia have a different chemical and mineralogical composition, depending on the deposit of raw materials. The studied clay raw materials can be used to recreate the ancient technology of ceramics. There is also a prospect for use in the ceramic industry. For a more detailed study, Kangalas clay raw materials were studied, this raw material is characterized by a high content of kaolinite, and it can be further used to create high-temperature ceramics. As a result of the conducted studies of samples of ceramic fragments, it was possible to find out the microstructure, chemical and mineralogical composition and temperature regime of firing of ceramic fragments. The ceramic samples have a common chemical and mineralogical composition. The conducted research allowed us to obtain detailed information on the manufacture of ceramic fragments from different eras. These results can be used for a deeper understanding of the ancient technology of ceramics production and will allow a broader disclosure of general and particular issues of the historical development of pottery in different regions of Yakutia
