چکیده:
The prehistoric Bakun culture of Fars during the Chalcolithic period (i.e. the fifth millennium bce), is unparalleled among
the contemporaneous cultures of Iran with regard to the diversity of its pottery techniques and creating specific geometric, animal,
and human motifs. In this period, very diverse forms of pottery were produced by full-time expert potters. Toll-e Rahmatabad, located
in the Kamin Plain of Pasargadae district, is one of the prehistoric regions which acted as a pottery production center during the
fifth millennium bc in the Middle Bakun Period. In archaeological excavations carried out in this site during three seasons, direct
archeological evidence of production and thousands of pieces of pottery belonging to the mentioned cultural period were discovered.
In the present study, the relationship between the form and design in these ceramics was examined by using statistical linear models and
SPSS Software. The significance level in all the tests was set at 0.05. The results of data analyses indicated a significant relationship
between the form and design of pottery during the Middle Bakun Period at Toll-e Rahmatabad.
