Sažetak
The considerations about Late Neolithic Vinča pot- tery are numerous in archaeological literature, but the Neolithic technology, and especially firing proce- dures are still unknown. The main goal of conducted experiment was reconstruction of reduced firing in pits, but also open-air firing and intentional black- ening of the vessels fired in oxidizing atmosphere. The results revealed advantages of pit-firing. From the point of view of technological choices, it was es- tablished that maintaining low temperatures of the firing was intentional decision of the potter in order to avoid cracking originated from calcium-carbonate decomposition.
