چکیده
منطقۀ شمال‌غرب ایران به‌دلیل موقعیت استراتژیک و اهمیت خاص خود، وجود فرهنگ‌های مختلف بشری در ادوار گذشته از پیش‌ازتاریخ تا دوران معاصر، نقش مهمی در ارتباطات فرهنگی خاور نزدیک ایفا کرده است. سفال به‌عنوان یکی از عوامل انتقال مفاهیم، که نتیجۀ تغییر و تحولات دوران گذشته ظاهر شده و به‌وسیلۀ اشکال و تزئینات غنی خود، گویاتر از همۀ ساخته‌های بشری، مفاهیم هنری هر دوره را بیان می‌کند. تحولات علاوه‌بر موارد تکنیکی ساخت، نقوش، جنس و رنگ ایجاد شده و میزان خلاقیت هنری صنعتگران بر آثار سفالین مشاهده نمود. هدف از پژوهش حاضر سبک‌شناسی سفال‌های سبک اردبیل موزۀ باستان‌شناسی بقعۀ شیخ صفی‌الدین اردبیلی بوده است؛ از این‌رو، نوشتار حاضر به روش مطالعات میدانی-موزه‌ای (مستندنگاری، عکاسی، طراحی) و توصیفی-تحلیلی (کتابخانه‌ای) است. سفال‌های مورد پژوهش جزو اشیاء توقیف شده‌ای است که به موزۀ باستان‌شناسی بقعۀ شیخ صفی‌الدین اردبیلی انتقال‌یافته است. به‌دلیل بی‌شمار بودن این نوع اشیاء در سایر موزه‌ها و مجموعه‌ها قابل تفکیک بودند، اما ازلحاظ تاریخی و یا موقعیت مکانی مشخص رعایت نشده است؛ درنتیجه به مطالعات تطبیقی، با سایر نمونه‌های مشابه موجود در موزۀ ملی، محوطه‌های باستانی ایران و مناطق همجوار پرداخته شده است. مباحث سفال سبک اردبیل، یکی از اساسی‌ترین موضوعات سفال شمال‌غرب ایران است. اغلب این نوع سفال‌ها از طریق حفاری‌های غیرمجاز و قاچاق به‌دست آمده و نمونه‌های یافت‌شده از کاوش علمی اندک هستند. سفال‌ها ازلحاظ شکل، شامل: کوزه، پیاله و آبخوری‌ها، به‌صورت دهانۀ شبدری، دسته‌دار، لوله‌دار، آبریز، و پایه‌دار‌می‌باشند. رنگ اکثرا سفال‌ها قرمز متمایل به نارنجی و رنگ نخودی و تزئینات هندسی شامل: نقوش مثلثی، هاشور، تزئینات برجستۀ دکمه‌ای و ... است. محدودۀ زمانی سفال‌های موردمطالعه از لحاظ نقش از دوران پیش‌ازتاریخ تا اواخر اشکانی و ازلحاظ فرم از اواخر هزارۀ اول پیش‌ازمیلاد (عصر آهن III) تا دوران تاریخی (اواخر اشکانی) درنظر گرفته شده است.

چکیده English

Among archaeological materials, pottery provides valuable evidence for reconstructing cultural, technological, and artistic developments. Changes in vessel forms, manufacturing techniques, fabrics, tempers, colors, and decorative motifs can contribute significantly to the identification of cultural and chronological patterns and provide insights into the technological skills and artistic practices of pottery producers. This study examines the stylistic characteristics and chronological development of Ardabil-style pottery preserved in the Archaeological Museum of the Sheikh Safi al-Din Ardabili Mausoleum. The research employs a field- and museum-based method, descriptive–analytical and library-based research. The pottery assemblage examined consists primarily of confiscated archaeological objects transferred to the museum. Since the provenance and precise archaeological contexts of many of these objects were not documented, comparative analysis was undertaken using comparable specimens preserved in the National Museum of Iran, as well as materials recovered from archaeological sites in Iran and neighbouring regions. The study of Ardabil-style pottery represents an important aspect of the archaeology of northwestern Iran. Most known examples have entered museum collections through illicit excavations, whereas specimensrecovered through controlled archaeological excavations remain relativelylimited. The assemblage includes a variety of vessel forms, including jugs, cups and drinking vessels, vessels with trefoil-shaped rims, handled vessels, spouted vessels, drainage elements, and bases. The predominant colors are red, orange, and pale green, while the decorative repertoire consists mainly of geometric motifs, including triangular patterns, hatching, and buttonlikeornaments. Based on stylistic and comparative evidence, the pottery examined in this study can be broadly dated from the prehistoric period to the Late Parthian period, with the principal chronological range extending from the Late First Millennium BCE (Iron Age III) to the Late Parthian period. The results contribute to a better understanding of the formal,decorative, and chronological characteristics of Ardabil-style pottery and its place within the archaeological traditions of northwestern Iran.
