Every site has at least one: the worked sherd. Game piece? Scraper? Spindle whorl? Miscellaneous ceramic object? Different analysts categorize these easily recognized but not always easily interpreted artifacts in different ways. In this presentation, we examine worked sherd assemblages from three 13th-15th century Ancestral Puebloan villages. Differences among these assemblages attest to variable contexts of use and meaning for worked sherds. We argue that individual worked sherds should be...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The focus of this research is the variability of ceramics from Late Woodland (A.D. 400-1000) sites in the Little Miami River Valley in Hamilton County, Ohio. Few Late Woodland features have been recovered and little is known about the ceramic technology in southwest Ohio, but these artifacts still play a major role in understanding prehistoric societies. The...

This is an abstract from the "Scaling Potting Networks: Recent Contributions from Ceramic Petrography " session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Until recently, it was thought that during the Early Intermediate Period on the northern coast of Peru, the Virú-Gallinazo populations only coexisted for a short time with the Mochicas. Recent archaeological operations in the Virú Valley now reveal that in this region they developed without interruption from 200 BC...

The label Deptford has long been synonymous with both a Woodland Period pottery type and a coastally oriented subsistence-residential adaptation. The former culture-historical terminology dates to 1939, while the latter concept is attributed to Milanich following his work on the Georgia coast in the early 1970s. Deptford also has been construed as a phase with a time-space-content connotation that incorporates aspects of both pottery and adaptation. Regardless of the specific meaning the term...

This is an abstract from the "From Households to Empires: Papers Presented in Honor of Bradley J. Parker" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Populations in the Chao Valley of coastal Peru experienced successive waves of imperial expansion from about AD 1350 to the mid-sixteenth century. In relatively short order, the Chimú, Inka, and Spanish empires each established varying degrees of control over the valley. The site of Santa Rita B offers...

An assemblage of 280 white clay smoking pipe fragments were recovered from a disturbed context during the construction of a marine basin and wharf at Barcelona Harbor, New York, on the southeastern shore of Lake Erie. Apparently packed in a wooden box or crate, this collection represents one of the largest unique and homogeneous collections fabricated during a brief period in a single manufactory from only a few molds. I summarize descriptive and quantitative analyses, probable provenance, and...

Archaeological investigations at the West Branch Site (AZ AA:16:3) produced over 5,000 sherds and re-constructible vessels of Rincon Red-on-brown. A numerical seriation of controlled, unmixed contexts reported in a companion volume (Wallace 19 86a) demonstrated the utility of a division of Rincon Red- on-brown into three subtypes. In this study, the three subtypes, Early, Middle, and Late Rincon Red-on-brown, are described and illustrated with special reference to the West Branch and Valencia...

Seminal and persistently relevant work by Ball has shaped and reshaped our understanding of Middle to Late Preclassic population movements on the Yucatan Peninsula and the establishment of local potting communities and traditions. Evidence of Middle Preclassic ceramic production in the northeastern-most Maya Lowlands had remained elusive until the mid 1990s. Early Nabanche affinities observed in the locally produced pottery of northern Quintana Roo suggested an expansion of peoples across the...
