Abstract

The article is devoted to the publication ofmaterials of a technical and technological analysis of ceramics discovered on four nowadays non-existent settlements, founded during the Stolypin reforms, on the territory of the modern Tabunsky district of the Altai region. As a result of the study, it was found that ceramic products from clays of medium and strong ferrous content, of various plasticity prevailed there. Three recipes for molding materials have been founded. Most of the products were fired at high temperatures with oxygen access. Most of the crockery were not subjected to additional surface treatment; glazed items are also found, one vessel was ornamented. The data obtained agree with the available written and ethnographic sources. Further work on the technical and technological analysis of “Russian” ceramics, as well as conducting archaeological and ethnographic research, can provide more complete information about the level of development of pottery production in Altai, as well as reveal the specifics and local features of different districts. Keywords: pottery, ceramics, first half of the 20th century, altai, technical and technological analysis
