We investigated Late Bronze Age painted pottery (1700-1200 BC) from Arslantepe in the Malatya plain (Eastern Anatolia) through a multi-analytical approach combining technological macroscopic observations with petrographic, geochemical and micro-structural methods. Our results evidence a strong continuity with the painted wares of the Middle Bronze Age in terms of raw materials, paste recipes, forming techniques and painting procedures. Unlike the coeval unpainted pottery, the Late Bronze Age painted ceramics exhibit standardised paste recipes that relate to distinct local production circuits.
