Abstract
In this study a petrographic analysis was carried out on the ceramic material uncovered from two late Sarmatian settlements in the southern part of the Great Hungarian Plain, Sándorfalva–Eperjes and Nagymágocs–Paptanya. The aim of the study is to confirm the working hypothesis that the micaceous-pebbly vessels of the settlements are made from locally available raw materials and the micaceous rock needed for their tempering was imported to the settlements. For this purpose, we analysed thin sections of grey fast-wheeled vessels (fine wares), which were dominant in the finds of the Nagymágocs site, then we compared the obtained data with earlier results on micaceous-pebbly vessels (Walter & Szilágyi 2022). In addition, the results are compared with the petrographic analysis of micaceous-pebbly ceramics from the Late Sarmatian settlement of Sándorfalva–Eperjes.
