Uma aproximação ao estudo das produções cerâmicas Alto Medievais (séculos IV a VIII) no território português: Um estado da questão

The analysis of the early middle age pottery productions is a marginal issue in the studies of the Portuguese Middle Age. A situation that has generated, nowadays, the lack of director fossils that help in the study of the material culture of this period. In this paper, we seek to address the reasons for this situation through an analytical approach to the history of the investigation of early middle age pottery in Portugal. A reflection that we hope may improve the perception of the current state of research, in which we will highlight what, in our opinion, are the priority lines of research development.
