The paper presents 89 selected glass fragments found during the four seasons of excavation in Pelusium, in and around the theater. They represent mostly tableware and lamps dated from the 1st century to the 7th, but most of the material is from the 5th century or earlier. It parallels the finds from the Egyptian Mediterranean coast, and shows close affinities to the glass of Syria-Palestine

Rescue excavations undertaken in hermitage EE.50 in Naqlun in 2016 brought to light an extensive pottery assemblage composed of red-slipped goblets, bowls and plates of Egyptian origin, made of alluvial fabrics, and a few specimens imported from North African workshops. The repertoire of tableware was complemented with qullae made of marl and alluvial clays. Numerous cooking pots, pans and a single lid represent kitchen equipment. Goods were kept in large vessels of different types. Commodities such as wine, olive oil or fish sauce were delivered in amphorae: Egyptian LRA 7 and imported vessels, originating from North Africa (Tunisia), Cilicia, Cyprus and Rhodes(?). This assemblage has revealed some aspects of everyday life in the hermitage and confirmed the independent self-sufficient lifestyle of its inhabitants. The pottery assemblage is from the middle to the end of the 5th century AD.

The paper discusses some preliminary research on pottery from the refuse dump at Selib 3. The assemblage comprised a rich repertoire of tableware, cooking and transport vessels. A striking feature of this collection is the abundance of imported products, some fine ware vessels (plates, small bottles etc.) but mostly amphorae, from Egypt and from the Eastern Mediterranean. The material from Selib 3 represents a homogenous chronological assemblage that can be placed in the 6th and early 7th century AD.

The article discusses an assemblage of pottery recovered from unit B.I.41 in the palatial building B.I excavated on the citadel of Dongola in the 2011 and 2012 seasons. Exploration started with the fill of the room, followed by the fill of structures belonging to an earlier building below it. A well dated sequence of layers from the 6th through 7th centuries was identified. The pottery assemblage proved to be very abundant, composed of table vessels, cooking pots, storage and transport containers; the lattermost group included imported examples, mainly from Egypt. Most of the finds represented Dongolan ceramic production from the period in question.

The complex of the Nekloni monastery in Fayum (Deir el-Naqlun) was explored in yet another three seasons of fieldwork by a team from the Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology. On the plateau, investigations were carried out in the southern part of Building D (Rooms D.50 and D.41–D.44), northern part of Building E, western part of the 12th–13th-century Cemetery A and Building I. A 6th-century Hermitage EE.06 in the Naqlun hills to the east of the plateau was cleared, yielding a collection of study material, especially pottery from the kitchen unit dated to the second half of the 5th–6th century. The assemblage from the kitchen unit was composed of cooking pots and saucepans; tableware was represented by goblets, plates and bottles (qullae), while storage/ transport vessels mainly by amphorae. Products of Egyptian workshops were mixed with imported wares of North African and Eastern Mediterranean origin (including Cyprus, Cilicia and Gaza).

Material culture in this aspect relates primarily to the equipment of utility rooms connected with kitchen utensils of different kind kept in castles – kitchen equipment, dishes of everyday use as well as tableware to be used during the grand masters’ ceremonial feasts. It is significant to mention the period analysed since the turn of the 14th and the 15th centuries is the time in which the largest food supplies noted in the sources were gathered in the larders of Teutonic castles. Moreover, the trade and economic organization of the Order of Teutonic Knights was strongly developing. State of the Teutonic Order had a strong position in the European trade market at that time.

Kultura materialna rozpatrywana w niniejszym opracowaniu dotyczy przede wszystkim wyposażenia pomieszczeń gospodarczych związanych z przechowywanymi na zamkach krzyżackich różnego rodzaju utensyliami kuchennymi – sprzętem kuchennym, naczyniami użytku codziennego, a także zastawą stołową przeznaczoną na uczty komturów i wielkich mistrzów. Nie bez znaczenia jest również przedział czasowy poddany analizie, bowiem przełom XIV i XV wieku jest to okres, w którym źródła zawierają najwięcej informacji na temat zapasów zgromadzonych w spiżarniach zamków krzyżackich. Ponadto, silnie rozwijająca się wówczas organizacja gospodarcza i handlowa zakonu krzyżackiego sprzyjała powstawaniu takich zapasów. Państwo krzyżackie w Prusach miało wówczas silną pozycję na rynkach europejskich.
