Recovered trade ceramics
The grinding wheel of the tea grinder in the photo
above is a Yue ware product. The black glazed stoneware jar and brown
glazed stoneware censer lid are possibly items related to incense or
medicines. Small fragments of ceramic pillows made by mixing together
different ceramic materials, such as Tang three-colored glazed items
and Changsha kiln products, have also been recovered. The bowls and
plate in the photo at the right were imported as commodities. The
pitchers were perhaps items for trade, or may have been brought for
utilization as vessels. Items for daily use, such as mixing bowls and
lamp dishes, are also found.
