Within a long time in history, water flows have significantly contributed to the landscape organization as a way of exchange and transport of goods, individuals, ideas and productive and technological traditions. This paper analyzes the role of rivers Ter, Llobregat and Segre concerning the territorial layout of Medieval Catalonia from the production and distribution networks of ceramic manufactures. To do so, preliminary results obtained from microscopic observation (MO) and chemical analysis by means of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) of 400 ceramic samples of utilitarian grey wares from consumption centres. This paper enables us to offer a first approach focused on the identification of occupation patterns, landscape exploitation and manufactures distribution in order to provide updated information, until definite results are available, for a better knowledge of pottery production and the societies that used these products in medieval times.
