Abstract
Halaf pottery is one of the core elements defining Late Neolithic Middle Eastern societies. This article presents the preliminary results of organic residue analyses performed on a small set of Late Halaf painted and plain Fine wares from Sector 49 in Tell Halula (Syria). Data obtained from lipids embedded in the clay matrix suggests the existence of type-content variation possibly related to food display and commensality practices.
