Summary/Abstract: The problem of distribution of ceramic artefacts with a higher proportion of decorative component was treated with the help of standard procedures of typological, stylistic and relief analyses, using natural scientific and documentation methods which have yielded new knowledge of production and distribution of high and late medieval stove tile goods and building and decorative ceramics. The research was focused on objects made from fired clay with the aim to determine the geographic origin of raw material used for their production. The crafts that worked with this raw material shared the same sources in the place of their activity, but the production procedures used with morphologically variable ceramic wares were different, which was reflected in a specific processing of the “clays” used.
