Résumé

Abstract this article presents a summary of the Neolithic pottery study (master's thesis) defended at the University of Al Neelain. The study was conducted as part of EDAR (Archaeological Research Project of the Stone Age in the Eastern Desert of the Lower Atbara River), one of the most recent joint research projects in eastern Sudan between the University of AL -Neelain and the University of Wroclaw and NCAM. The authors conducted the project jointly for two seasons in 2016-2017 to study Neolithic pottery. Several archaeological sites were documented in the area, 35 archaeological sites contained Neolithic artefacts. This study subjectively examined the characteristics of Neolithic pottery in EDAR from site EDAR11, 47. The sites are located in two different areas of the EDAR concession. The methodology is based on the description and categories of the pottery sherds, manufacture, shape, thickness, and decorative surface treatment. The information resulting from the classification was compared with Sudanese Neolithic traditions. The study revealed that the Neolithic pottery in EDAR is similar to the so-called Atbai tradition in Eastern Sudan, which is dated between 5000 BC and 750 BC.
