About this product
Product Information
Pottery Analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the methods and techniques of the archaeological and ethnographic study of pottery. It begins with a summary of the origins and history of pottery in different parts of the world, then examines the raw materials of pottery and their physical and chemical properties, addresses ethnographic and ethnoarchaeological perspectives on various aspects of pottery production and use, reviews various methods of studying pottery's physical, mechanical, thermal, mineralogical, and chemical properties, and discusses how proper analysis of artifacts can reveal insights into their culture of origin. In its second edition, this fully updated sourcebook is an essential guide for archaeologists and anthropologists, as well as for ceramic engineers, chemists, physicists, and geologists.

Reviews
This is the book that all of us interested in ceramic analysis wish we had written. Rice has written a well-organized and comprehensive review of the breadth of research being done in the field of ancient ceramic technology and vessel function, from design analysis to the latest advances in provenience studies in a framework where understanding the potter and the potter's socioeconomic milieu is the paramount objective., Although it is of special interest to archaeologists, Rice's compendium is also directed toward a wider audience, including social, physical, and materials scientists. Her broad work provides both an introduction to the topic and an exceedingly valuable asset to the most advanced researcher. . . . Rice's excellent volume is a true sourcebook and will serve as the standard for many years to come., A highly ambitious, well-organized, encyclopedic reference manual conceived on a broad scale and provides a holistic coverage not found in any other volumes., As a reference work about contemporary ceramic research, it can only be described in superlatives. Rice summarizes nearly everything happening in the study of ceramics today. Scholars and students alike will find something in the book related to their interest. . . . An important book., Rice has produced a magnificent synthesis that belongs on every archeologist's shelf. It is also an excellent textbook for students.
