Site 3 in Bessów, Bochnia Commune, Lesser Poland, is located in the dense Przeworsk culture settlement micro-region occupying the right bank of the lower reaches of the Raba River. The most characteristic feature of locally produced artefacts from Bessów, and to a lesser extent from other sites in the region, is the presence of enormous amounts of this pottery. The aim of laboratory analyses carried out on Pakoszówka-Bessów type pottery from Bessów was to verify the hypothesis that abradability of sherd surfaces is attributable to the alteration effect.}, doi = {}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/acta-archaeologica-carpathica/article/ceramic-technology-used-in-the-production-of-easily-abradable-pottery-pakoszowka-bessow-type-from-bessow-site-3-in-the-light-of-archaeometric-analysis} }
