Data on the lead-glazed pottery discovered on the Dacian sites Brad (Bacău Co.) and Poiana (Galaţi Co.)

The article presents the lead-glazed pottery discovered on the Dacian sites Brad (Bacău Co.) and Poiana (Galaţi Co.). The identified items were either mould-made or wheel-made, and their relief decoration was moulded or applied in barbotine. The identified decorative motifs form three categories that are typical for this ceramic group: fi gurative decoration, vegetal decoration, and ornamental decoration. Th e identifi ed shapes and auxiliary elements – Ringhenkelskyphos Ia, cups, Daumenplatte 1 – and also the decorative motifs – Ionian kyma, stylized hearts, myrtle wreaths with berries, stylized vegetal decoration – have good analogies in Asia Minor; two of the items under discussion (no. 4-5) might have been produced in the center of Mytilene. In the absence of clear details on the contexts in which these items were discovered in the Dacian settlements, they can be dated to a wide interval between the end of the 1st century B.C. and early 2nd century A.D.
