Abstract :This paper focuses on the typological diversity of the cooking pottery recovered from excavations of the buildings, took place during the 2018 to 2021 field seasons. The total area encompassed by the buildings is 28.20 metres by 10.60 metres. The buildings, designated A and B, encompass a total floor area of approximately 240 square metres and contain twelve rooms. The entirety of the cooking wares in question, as discussed in this article, were retrieved from Buildings A and B. A fundamental typology of the coarse wares was established for the early Roman to late Roman periods of Anemurium, as outlined by C. Williams in her study. This paper evaluates the types, studied by Williams, as well as new variations of these types, and newly identified types. This paper identifies 16 distinct types. The identified types are as follows: 1, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, and 16 are variations of the those studied by Williams. The 4, and 15 are new discoveries for Anemurium. The types: 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 12 were previously evaluated by Williams. This study aims to expand the research on the Late Roman cooking vessels from Anemurium.
