Abstract

This research carried out composition analysis the subject of potteries from kiln site at Gangwon-do, Chungcheong Nam∙Buk-do and the followings are the results. Firstly, XRD analysis results showed that soft potteries were consisted of $\alpha$-quartz, feldspar and soil minerals while hard potteries were consisted of high temperature crystals like mullite, tridymite and cristobalite. Secondly, the firing temperatures of the soft potteries were determined using XRD analysis. It ranged from $550^{\circ}C$ to $870^{\circ}C$.While the firing temperatures of the hard potteries were divided into 3 groups; Group Ⅰ: Potteries with Mullite and Feldspar - ranged from $1000^{\circ}C$ to$1200^{\circ}C$. Group II : Potteries with Mullite and Tridymite - ranged from $875^{\circ}C$ to $1200^{\circ}C$. Group III : Potteries with Cristobalite - ranged above $1200^{\circ}C$.Thirdly, the result of correlation analysis using trace element such asSc, Rb of the potteries form Gangwon do and Chungcheong Nam.Bukdokilns allowed us to divide the area with their own characteristics into 4-groups. Using the same result, kilns sited at Chungcheong Nam.Buk-do were classified into 3-groups.
