Summary

These are only some of the more common ceramics found in the Boquete area, and the dates are tentative. Dates given are the most inclusive possible in order to incorporate the different time spans assigned by various researchers. This is highly simplified and for use only to get a rough chronological fix on ceramic samples. It collapses many divisions within wares that would not alter the chronological placement of a type.
