At Kojtepa, at less than 50 km to South-West from Samarkand (Uzbekistan), a large amount of materials have been brought to light, among which pottery vessels and a significant number as well of other small finds. These small finds consist of spindle-whorls, loom weights, pottery discs and a fragmented stone palette that have been subject of a preliminary graphic, photographic study, and of a typological differentiation based on shape, size and traces of re-use. If for spindle-whorls and loom weights we have come to a certain identification and interpretation about their function related to the production and textile processing, many questions still arise for the real functions of the pottery discs and the palette. In the poster we intend to present the preliminary results of this research activities, documented during the joint Uzbek/Italian archaeological mission of the 2008-2017 works and surveys carried out by Università degli Studi di Napoli "L'Orientale" and the Institute of Archaeology of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan.
