Clay vessels have a wide variety of functions in social activities in the Hallstatt period. In addition to food storage and processing, they were used for ritual purposes and as funerary vessels. The paper presents the results of archaeological and chromatographic studies of 31 vases from two different Hallstatt culture sites in lower Silesia (Poland). The investigations included vessels fragments from the Domasław cemetery and from the Milejowice settlement. The chromatographic analyses focused on fatty acids and biomarkers and made it possible to identify the most likely sources of substances they came into contact with during use. The c-means and hierarchical cluster analyses showed that grave vessels differed from settlement ceramics. Thus, conclusions on the diverse vessel functions could be made.
在哈尔施塔特时期的社会活动中，黏土容器具有多种功能。除了储存和加工食物外，它们还被用于仪式目的和作为丧葬容器。本文介绍了对来自下西里西亚（波兰）两个不同哈尔施塔特文化遗址的 31 个花瓶的考古和色谱研究结果。研究包括来自多马绍夫采公墓和米莱约维采定居点的容器碎片。色谱分析侧重于脂肪酸和生物标志物，这使得确定它们在使用过程中最有可能接触到的物质来源成为可能。c-均值和层次聚类分析表明，墓地的容器与定居点的陶器不同。因此，可以得出关于不同容器功能的结论。
