Pottery has become one of the major categories of artefact that is
used in reconstructing the lives and habits of prehistoric people.
In these 14 papers, members of the Prehistoric Ceramics Research
Group discuss the many ways in which pottery is used to study
chronology, behavioural changes, inter-relationships between people
and between people and their environment, technology and
production, exchange, settlement organisation, cultural expression,
style and symbolism. Contents: Introduction (Ann Woodward & J D
Hill); A date with the past: Late Bronze and Iron Age pottery and
chronology (Steven Willis); The nature of archaeological deposits
and finds assemblages (Joshua Pollard); Aspects of manufacture and
ceramic technology (Alex Gibson); Between ritual and routine:
interpreting British prehistoric pottery production and
distribution (Sue Hamilton); Staying alive: The function and use of
prehistoric ceramics (Elaine L Morris); Sherds in space: pottery
and the analysis of site organisation (Ann Woodward); Pottery and
the expression of society, economy and culture (J D Hill); Ceramic
lifes (Alistair Barclay); Pots as categories: British Beakers
(Robin Boast); Inclusions, impressions and interpretation (Ann
Woodward); A regional ceramic sequence: pottery of the First
Millennium BC between the Humber and the Nene (David Knight); Just
about the potter's wheel? Using, making and depositing Middle and
Later Iron Age pots in East Anglia (J D Hill); Roman pottery in
Iron Age Britain
