Abstract

The goal of this paper is to investigate the medieval domestic pan known as ‘testello’ through an integrated approach that combines morphological analysis with experimental archaeology and the analysis of technological traces. The testello is a flat container with edges a few centimeters high, traditionally used in Italy for crafting bread and flatbreads.

We conducted an analysis of a sample of testelli from the medieval town of Cencelle (Viterbo, Italy).

The application of experimental and traceological techniques, which have been relatively underutilized in the examination of medieval ceramics in Italy, has yielded numerous new insights into the material culture of Cencelle. This has prompted us to contemplate new methodologies for the production of domestic tools and the dynamics of social organization within a medieval town.

人与手工艺品。Cencelle 中世纪小镇（意大利 VT 省）的 "testelli "手工艺品制作：实验和痕迹学方法

本文旨在通过形态分析、实验考古和技术痕迹分析相结合的综合方法，研究中世纪被称为 "testello "的家用平底锅。我们对来自中世纪森塞勒镇（意大利维泰博）的 "testelli "样本进行了分析。在对意大利中世纪陶瓷的研究中，实验和痕迹学技术的应用相对较少，但通过这些技术的应用，我们对森塞勒的物质文化有了许多新的认识。这促使我们思考有关中世纪城镇中家庭工具的生产和社会组织动态的新方法。
