Minoan Barbotine Ware: Styles, Shapes, and A Characterization of the Clay Fabric

This paper examines the styles, shapes, and chemical composition, and ceramic fabric of Minoan Barbotine Ware. During the Middle Minoan period, Barbotine Ware exemplifies the creative ingenuity of the Minoan potter. The vessels’ elaborate decorative motifs play an integral part in the development of Minoan pottery. Barbotine Ware remains an ill-defined tradition. This paper will analyze the styles and shapes of Barbotine Ware vessels, as well as provide a chemical and petrographic study of Barbotine Ware from Kommos. The ultimate goal is to provide a thorough study of all aspects of the Ware in the hopes that future scholars may better understand its place within Minoan pottery and appreciate how it exemplifies the spirit of experimentation during the Middle Bronze Age on Crete. / Art History
