Although domesticated camelids seem to be an important element of the prehispanic Andean economy and social structures, they appear inconsistently in the iconography of ceramics, textiles, lithics, and other media. Recent archaeological excavations at the site of Yunkaray, Maras, Peru revealed a high frequency of local style ceramics with camelid iconography. Found in domestic areas associated with high status individuals, these ceramics were possibly used for feasting and as an avenue of...

In 1987 a broken ceramic vessel was discovered at the Castle Gardens site in central Wyoming. Craig Bromley, Bureau of Land Management, assisted by members of the Wyoming Archaeological Society, conducted a test excavation recovering about 80% of the pot. Gail Gossett carefully restored the pot (Figure 1). In 1996, the Bureau of Land Management asked me to examine the restored pot; to offer a description of its manufacturing technique and its other attributes; and to compare the pot to other...

Jato Black-on-Gray is an extremely rare Terminal Classic pottery type in central Petén, typically recovered as mortuary furniture. It is a hybrid, combining typical Petén forms with aspects of color, decoration, and use borrowed from wares and groups such as Chablekal Fine Gray and Achote Black, more common in western and southwestern Petén. In particular, an incised monkey image on a Jato vase from Tayasal ties it to common motifs on Chablekal bowls, which are also from burial contexts but were...

The fragments of unglazed red earthenware vessels used in the production of sugar and  identified as ceramic sugarwares, were frequently used by plantations for processing and curing sugar and collecting molasses, and were a common sight on Barbadian plantations from the seventeenth into the late nineteenth centuries.  The local production of these wares occurred in potteries operated by plantations along the east coast of Barbados. Planters managed these potteries while the workers themselves...

Ceramic research continues to be a mainstay of historical archaeology endeavors.  In spite of years of the so-called quantitative approaches to ceramic analyses including mean dating, South’s pattern analysis, and most recently the DAACS’s  recording methodology, the basics of identifying specific potters and their products is alive and well.  Writing the story of American ceramics is a regional undertaking.  It requires historical research, excavation, material science, study of antique...

Chaco-McElmo Black-on-white, human humpback effigy, Chaco Cibola, AMNH Accession 29.1 Catalog #3209. Analyzed by Lori Reed 2004. Medium quartz sand temper (exposed on effigy base) and washy white slip indicate manufacture in the Chaco region. During vessel restoration the head was attached to the effigy by means of a plaster material reconstruction. Based on differences in paint and the location of use wear, it is unlikely that the attached head is the original head for this effigy. The designs...
