Cerâmicas de Vila Franca de Xira nos séculos XV e XVI

The archaeological intervention in the Ateneu Artístico Vilafranquense site in 2007, in the context of preventive archaeology, revealed data about the urban center of Vila Franca de Xira during the Late Middle Ages and Early Modern Age. The study of the entire set of materials from this intervention, made up of ceramics, faunal remains, glass, metals and lithic materials, allowed us to infer the domestic nature of this context comprised of the town population’s consumption remains. We present the final results of the ceramic materials analysis, which correspond to a total of 492 identifiable objects (NMI), mainly related to the 15th and 16th centuries
