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.

This workshop questioned the reliability of pottery as crisis indicator within the archaeological data set. More particularly, following the perspective of archaeological and anthropological research that assesses pottery technology as a social product, there is an interest in addressing the social and cultural aspects of technological change...

The Lapita pottery displaying dentate stamped decorations is at the core of our actual understanding of the human colonisation of Oceania about 3000 years ago. One of the ways to extract information about these past societies is by characterising the ceramic collections and examining the chemical compositions of the various vessels. This project examines the compositional similarities and dissimilarities of early pottery assemblages in Vanuatu. Connecting the technological styles with contextual cultural information, such as decorations or vessel forms, lead to a better understanding of the technological choices faced during pottery production. These decisions are taken following the culturally accepted rules embodied in the production process and consequently, this study allows a better understanding of significant parts of the socio-political and economic aspects of Lapita and post-Lapita societies. Results show that the vast majority of the Lapita and post-Lapita ceramic vessels analysed were produced locally. The homogeneity of the dentate-stamped decorations across Lapita sites reveals that ideas were transferred more than objects and that the ideological signification of these vessels was more important than their economic value. It is also evident from the results that the compositional variability observed in earlier Lapita ceramic collection is much more significant than what is observed from the more recent assemblages. This variability of technological styles for Lapita pots is generally seen as a consequence resulting from mobile settlement patterns. However, the important natural variability of the raw materials used to produce pottery demonstrates that this mobility is generally restricted to a relatively small-scale since not much movement or geographical distance would be required to produce compositional profiles corresponding to the results. From a political economy perspective, the significant variability of Lapita technological styles demonstrates that there wasn't any apparent control or imposed limitations over access to the raw materials used to produce pottery and that there was no specialised production. It also suggests that a technological exploratory phase probably followed the arrival of Lapita potters on previously unoccupied islands with unfamiliar raw materials. The important decrease in varieties of technological styles between Lapita and immediately post-Lapita assemblages combined with the almost exclusive usage of local materials by post-Lapita potters support the idea that a general regionalisation process was occurring at the time when dentate stamped pottery stopped being produced. The almost systematic absence of decoration and the technological homogeneity in immediately post-Lapita ceramic collections are in such contrast with Lapita decorations and the fracture between both so clean that it should be seen as a strategy to differentiate the subsequent cultural production from the former Lapita political, economic and religious structures. Overall, the combined modification of both the decorative and technological style between Lapita and immediately post-Lapita indicates that some major social transformation occurred, as has been already suggested by others. In terms of methodological contribution, this study shows that LA-ICP-MS represents an excellent analytical technique to gather bulk compositional profiles of ceramic assemblages and that it represents a viable alternative to petrography.

The evolution and proliferation of plain and predominantly wheel-made pottery presents a characteristic feature of the societies of the Near East and Eastern Mediterranean since the fourth millennium B.C. This plain pottery has received little detailed archaeological attention in comparison to aesthetically more pleasing and chronologically sensitive decorated traditions. Yet, their simplicity and standardization suggest they are products of craft specialists, the result of high-volume production, and therefore important in understanding the social systems in early complex societies. This volume-reevaluates the role and significance of plain pottery traditions from both historically specific perspectives and from a comparative point of view;-examines the uses and functions of this pottery in relation to social negotiation and group identity formation;-helps scholars understand cross-regional similarities in development and use.
