Halaf period ceramics from Arpachiyah and Chagar Bazar, modern-day Iraq and Syria

Ca. 6000-5200 BCE

The Halaf period was the first time that a shared cultural tradition spread across all of northern Mesopotamia. Potters of the Halaf period produced some of the finest handmade pottery known from the ancient world. Halaf vessels are fired at high temperatures and painted with detailed patterns.
