[Bonetools] Strange objects

[Etan Ayalon]

Dear Alice and others,

Attached is a photo of such a baking tray of LB Age. 

No, Alice, I don't expect the Bavarians to eat pita and humus...  but
referred to the principle of heating with a perforated pottery plate.
The photo is from:

Ziffer, I. 2002. Sheaves in the Field. In: Ziffer, I. and Sorek, Ch. The
Corn Spirit (exhibition catalogue, Eretz Israel Museum, Tel Aviv). Tel
Aviv, p. 57.

Dear Etan,

   Do you have images? Pita in Bavaria?

The idea of making small depressions in order to better let through the
heat is known from pottery baking trays of Iron Age (12th-8/7th century
BCE) Israel. They were used to bake flat bread (Arabic pitta or perhaps
also Jewish matzah?).

It looks to me like baffle brick (for stoves) that was water worn along
natural breaks...Except for the little ticked rim ceramic on the bottom
row- that looks like something different.

	Dear colleagues,

	     These objects were found in Bavaria. they are not bone but
I am hoping someone can tell Cathy Barbash (a friend of a friend of
Sandra Olsen) what the heck they are. The definitely look 'historic' to
me given the precision they are made with but what do I know?

	 

	Best,

	Alice
