Abstract
This article discusses Iron Age composite strainers as a defined
pottery type for the very first time and presents a coherent discussion
of its properties. Even though only seven examples of composite
strainers are known to date, they consist of a unique form. This
contribution examines morphological and technological aspects,
their use, date, geographical distribution, and archaeological context.
Consideration of this rare and almost unknown pottery type may
help to identify additional examples in existing unpublished and
future excavations.
