Mehran Plain is located in the cultural region of South West Iran. Studying the geographic location of this region in relation to the formation of early states is important. The cultural materials of Chogha Ahowan in Mehran plain would explain the process of urbanization and Cultural interactions of this region with its neighbors. According to the surveys conducted to collect necessary pottery materials from the simultaneous adjacent areas, potteries of trench II attributed to the early urbanization and urbanization period were classified and analyzed. These potteries on the basis of forms are divided into seven groups including jar, crock, bowl, tray, spout vessels, handle vessels and miniature vessels. Based on the typology and the characteristics of each pottery type we tried to represent a clear result of the pottery industry for the area during the early urbanization and urbanization periods.
