Abstract

The authors present the results of radiocarbon dating of early medieval pottery from two furnaces discovered at Gródek on the Bug River, site 35. Dated by “traditional” methods, the pottery sits in the 11th c., but the 14C dates are earlier by roughly 150 years. In view of the unquestioned stratigraphy of the samples related to the pottery, the results presented here should be considered as a contribution to the discussion of pottery workshop development in eastern Poland, which apparently followed a different pattern than that examined so far only in relation to the western, Greater Poland center of the Piast state.
