Description for Prehistoric Pottery in Britain and Ireland
Paperback. Pottery is one of the most enduring artefacts from prehistory. It is of fundamental importance since, unlike stone, it can be precisely dated, displays regional variation and can produce information on the diet and economy of prehistoric people. This book introduces the reader to the style and forms of British pottery. Num Pages: 176 pages, 71 b/w figs, 20 col pls. BIC Classification: 1DBK; HB; HDD; WFS. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 247 x 172 x 12. Weight in Grams: 464.
It can be precisely dated, can tell us about the diet, economy, and even ritual acts of prehistoric people, and it is often richly decorated. As this new study convincingly shows, pottery can tell us more about prehistoric society than any other artefact.
