All the hearths are rectangular areas at the centre of a room\u2019s floor enclosed with low borders. The area is divided into two approximately equal zones. In the one situated nearer to the outer wall there is a stand of mud-bricks adjoining a ceramic hearth stand with ram protomes. In front of the latter, there is a vessel dug in the bottom of the hearth. The second zone situated nearer to the <em>sufa <\/em>is empty and devoid of any structures. Hearth stands, commonly referred to in the literature as \u2018braziers\u2019, have been recovered from many sites, yet only at Jankent they have been encountered <em>in situ<\/em>. Their design and position in the hearth enable us to regard them as cult objects. The analysis of the hearth pattern of a tenth-century dwelling complex at the settlement of Jankent allow the conclusion that they were not mere heating structures but also home altars.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>DOI: <\/strong>10.31857\/S086960630004122-3<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emma D.
