Abstract
This study deals with main problems in the identification of clays and ceramics based on research into one site. The experience and results obtained in this study are used to formulate proposals for further research. An effective solution to the basic problem in this field requires the development of methods for identification of fabrics produced from the mixtures of various types of clay, and also for definition of the original raw clays.Keywords
