Ceramic Drinkware from Castles and Earth-and- Timber Fortifications as Indicators of the Medieval Slavonian Nobility’s Status
Ceramic tableware used for serving and drinking beverages – cups and jugs – from castles and other fortified residences of lesser lords and major tenants in the area of medieval Slavonia is examined in this paper. Ceramic tableware represents material of exceptional importance for the research of different segments of high and late medieval archaeology. Suitable for chronological classification and found in secure archaeological contexts, it can represent a good point of reference in typological- chronological analyses of other not so datable material from the same layers (most often fragments of kitchenware), as well as in further stratigraphic analyses of different layers and contexts at a single site. However, its value in archaeological analyses surpasses the mere typological-chronological significance because it offers a wealth of valuable data for the examination of the social status of the residents of castles and other fortified noble residences. Among the examined material it is possible to distinguish exemplars of ceramic tableware used as drinkware of the lord and his family, as is the case in most examined sites, from drinkware for which it was determined that it was used by a castle´s garrison located at its strategic, but marginal positions. The paper sheds new light on the issue of determining the workshop origin of different types and finds of locally produced ceramic cups from various medieval Slavonian sites. Besides ceramic drinkware produced in local workshops imported exemplars have also been found at Slavonian castles and fortified manors of landlords, which additionally points to the standard and connections of the nobility that had the wish and means to follow the prevailing fashion imposed and generated by stronger European centers.
