Daniel Albero Santacreu presents a wide overview of certain aspects
of the pottery analysis and summarizes most of the methodological
and theoretical information currently applied in archaeology in
order to develop wide and deep analysis of ceramic pastes. The book
provides an adequate framework for understanding the way pottery
production is organised and clarifies the meaning and role of the
pottery in archaeological and traditional societies. The goal of
this book is to encourage reflection, especially by those
researchers who face the analysis of ceramics for the first time,
by providing a background for the generation of their own research
and to formulate their own questions depending on their concerns
and interests. The three-part structure of the book allows readers
to move easily from the analysis of the reality and ceramic
material culture to the world of the ideas and theories and to
develop a dialogue between data and their interpretation. Daniel
Albero Santacreu is a Lecturer Assistant in the University of the
Balearic Islands, member of the Research Group Arqueo UIB and the
Ceramic Petrology Group. He has carried out the analysis of
ceramics from several prehistoric societies placed in the Western
Mediterranean, as well as the study of handmade pottery from
contemporary ethnic groups in Northeast Ghana.
