Briquetage or very coarse pottery (VCP) is a coarse ceramic material used to make evaporation vessels and supporting pillars used in extracting salt from brine or seawater. Thick-walled saltpans were filled with saltwater and heated from below until the water had boiled away and salt was left behind. Often, the bulk of the water would be allowed to evaporate in salterns before the concentrated brine was transferred to a smaller briquetage vessel for final reduction. Once only salt was left, the briquetage vessels would have to be broken to remove the valuable commodity for trade.

  • Briquetage nennt man in der Archäologie Salzsiedeinstrumente aus Jungsteinzeit, Bronze- und Eisenzeit. Seine ursprüngliche Bedeutung hat der Begriff als Ziegelwerk oder ziegelartiger Anstrich einer Mauer. Er wurde zuerst von Félix-François de la Sauvagère geprägt für ziegelartige, stangenförmige Fundgegenstände, die haufenweise am Oberlauf der Seille in Lothringen vorgefunden wurden und bereits 1740 wissenschaftlich beschrieben wurden. Die Bezeichnung erhielten die Funde aufgrund ihrer zum Teil prismatischen Form und ihres ziegelartigen Aussehens, aufgrund dessen sie als Backsteinreste von „Unterbauten für Ansiedlungen oder Wege“ gedeutet wurden.

  • Briquetage or very coarse pottery (VCP) is a coarse ceramic material used to make evaporation vessels and supporting pillars used in extracting salt from brine or seawater. Thick-walled saltpans were filled with saltwater and heated from below until the water had boiled away and salt was left behind. Often, the bulk of the water would be allowed to evaporate in salterns before the concentrated brine was transferred to a smaller briquetage vessel for final reduction. Once only salt was left, the briquetage vessels would have to be broken to remove the valuable commodity for trade. Broken briquetage material is found at multiple sites from the later Bronze Age in Europe into the medieval period and archaeologists have been able to identify different forms and fabrics of the pottery, allowing trade networks to be identified. Saltworking sites contain large quantities of the orange/red material and in Essex the mounds of briquetage are known as Red Hills. A recent discovery at the Poiana Slatinei archaeological site next to a salt spring in Lunca, Neamt County, Romania, indicates that Neolithic people of the Precucuteni Culture were boiling the salt-laden spring water through the process of Briquetage to extract the salt as far back as 6050 BC, making it perhaps the oldest saltworks in history.
