Islamic tradition pottery in Portuguese contexts. 12th– 14thcenturies

Abstract

This paper intends to advance with a first analysis to the logics of continuity between the Islamic period and the moments after the Christian conquest, detectable in the ceramics produced in several cities and regions of nowadays Portuguese territory. Although the preliminary nature of this approach, an interpretation of confirmed regional differences is attempted, based on factors such as latitude, temporal scope of the Islamic presence and centre-periphery relations.
