Anotace: During excavations of the Shahrake Firouzeh site, much evidence of the Bactria Margiana

Archaeological Complex or Amu Darya Civilization has been found. Such evidence is spread
across northern Iran, northern Afghanistan, eastern Turkmenistan, southern Uzbekistan, and western
Tajikistan. In the present study, pottery samples from the Firoozeh town area were studied using XRD
and XRF methods. Using the XRF method and Dplot Software, 15 samples were studied and the
data evaluated by analyzing the ratio of various components. The results of the study show that the
dominant clay source of the pottery samples existed in the same region, while two other clay subsources from adjoining regions were also identified.
