Resumé

Project: Medieval Potters’ Kilns
By Jan Kock

Potters’ kilns first came into use in Denmark in the early Middle Ages. Until the early 1980s, only two medieval potter’s kilns were known of in this country. In a very short period of time, from 1983 on, three new potter’s kilns were found, along with the waster from their production. The three new kilns were quite different from each other in construction, and quite different from those already known. This gave rise to the establishment of a research and publication project, including processing the finds, carrying out a series of experimental archaeological experiments, and collecting archaeological and selected ethnological and ethnographical parallel material for comparison. This research is presented together with medieval potters’ kilns in Denmark excavated later, so that the publication adequately covers this subject area when it appears in 2003.
