In the beginning: Marhashi and the origins of Magan’s ceramic industry in the third millennium BC
Abstract
Ceramics from the Jiroft plain in southeastern Iran are compared with material of Umm an‐Nar‐type dating to the mid‐ and late third millennium BC in the Oman Peninsula. Technological and stylistic comparisons suggest the strong possibility that potters from the Iranian side of the Straits of Hormuz may have been the instigators of Magan's earliest ceramic industry.

Pottery technology in southeastern Arabia was adopted at a relatively fast pace during the early-mid third millennium BC, within the context of other pyrotechnologies, such as metalworking, as well as the movement of imported pottery and possibly craftspeople from the Indo-Iranian region and Mesopotamia.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
