Sankampaeng introduction
'In 1942, when travelling through the forest near Sankampaeng, I came across fragments of glazed potteries.' So wrote Kraisri Nimmanahaeminda. Eighty-three small kilns were subsequently discovered.
Many rather poor celadon wares ( shown on these six pages) were produced; on
jars, the small handles were pierced through the body and the dishes were fired lip to lip and base to base.
Most of the wares were not of good quality although some fine underglaze black decorated dishes and spectacular large dual glaze jars have been found.
Sherds of Sankampaeng wares are found at habitation sites throughout the north of Thailand but they are not known to have been exported. Hundreds, if not thousands of dishes were found at the Tak Hilltop Burial Sites.
Sankampaeng ceramics were probably produced between 1350 and 1550, as was the majority of all Thai ceramics.
