Ceramic vessel 325-1. Oppidum Puente Tablas

Ceramic vessel from the Gate of the Sun of the Iberian oppidum of Puente Tablas (Jaén, Spain). Oxidising atmosphere. Decoration with black and red lines. The red color is obtained using hematite (Fe2O3).
The black color is obtained using an oxide of manganese identified by MRS as jacobsite (MnFe2O4). The presence of this manganese oxide means that the firing temperature has reached 900 ° C. The jacobsite is the result of the transformation of the pyrolusite (MnO2), the most common manganese ore, during the firing process.
