Abstract

The paper features the materials of a simultaneouse complex unique for Azak dated the 1st half of the 15th century. Its dating is thoroughly substantiated. The ceramics from the site in question is mainly represented by the 1st group of products crafted by local potters, imported Trebizond amphoras and East Crimean glazed ceramics. The authors make suggestions concerning the method of analysis of statistical data on mass ceramic material. This work is the first step in the study of the period of Azaq's existence after 1395, known from written and numismatic sources, but previously absent in archaeological materials.
