Archaeological Ceramics: Interpreting Artefacts

An inorganic non-metallic solid made up of either metal or non-metal compounds that has been shaped and then hardened by heating to high temperatures is referred to as a ceramic. Earthenware, porcelain, and brick are some of the common examples of ceramics. In archeology, ceramic artifacts have an important role in understanding the culture, technology, and behavior of peoples of the past. They are among the most common artifacts that are found at an archaeological site, especially in the form of small fragments of broken pottery called sherds. This book brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of archeological ceramics. Its aim is to present researches that have transformed this discipline and aided its advancement. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
