An Examination of the Role of San Juan Red Ware Vessels in Social Interaction
Author(s): Robert Bischoff
Year: 2018
Summary
This paper evaluates the role that San Juan Red Ware played in social interaction. San Juan Red Ware was widely distributed throughout the Four Corners region between ca. A.D. 750 and 1100. Prior research has identified this ware as a marker of identity and established an association with communal feasting. A study of the distribution of this ware indicates that it was traded through specific social networks, which changed through time. While ceramics may profitably be used as stand-ins for actors in social networks, my focus is to investigate the roles that the ceramics themselves played in social interactions by evaluating how the material characteristics of these vessels helped to transmit and reinforce ideas of identity and community.
