Özet
The wells have great importance for discovering the functions of buildings to which they belong. The pottery finds both from use fills and abandonment debris of wells also reveal very important data for pottery chronology and typology. The three wells uncovered in the HBT sector at Clazomenae provided a great number of pottery finds from the 4th century. Most of them are water jugs clearly connected with the function of the wells. The remaining pottery assemblages consist of a few black glazed drinking cups and some household wares for different services other than water jugs. The first two of the three wells in the HBT Sector at Clazomenae, Well 1 and Well 2, probably opened for the service of industrial installations in the 6th century. Both wells were closed with the abandonment of the Clazomenian mainland in the beginning of the 5th century. Well 1 does not seem to have served as a water supply in the 4th century. However, Well 2 was in use during the first half of the 4th century before closing within the second quarter. Well 3, which was dug in a courtyard of a residential building dated to the second quarter of the 4th century, went into use in the second quarter and it lost its function as a water supply around the middle of the century. The pottery from the three wells under discussion can help us understand the ceramic culture of the first half of the 4th century; it also serves as the main criterion for dating the fills in the wells.
