A note on the painted wheel-made ware from Istakhr
The aim of this paper is to provide a preliminary description of a specific group of wheel-made monochrome painted ware belonging to the pottery corpus from the excavations in Istakhr carried out in 2012 by the Joint Iranian-Italian Archaeological Mission. This pottery production is mostly characterised by closed forms with geometric-vegetal motifs painted in red or black; at times the painted decoration is associated with incised or carved motifs.
