Zoomorphic Motifs on the Ceramics from the Selitrennoe Settlement

During the archaeological study of the Selitremmoe settlement, a significant number of ceramic materials were discovered, among which a special category is represented by fragments of vessels with zoomorphic motifs. The discovered fragments belong to local and imported ceramics. For the first group, the largest category of finds is represented by fragments with ornithomorphic images, among which a duck, a goose, a heron, as well as one image of a hoofed animal were identified. For imported ceramics, the image of fish is characteristic. The published materials supplement the information about the material and artistic culture of the population of Saray al-Jedid city, its cultural and trade relations.
