Sourcing Prehistoric Ceramics at Chodistaas Pueblo, Arizona: The Circulation of People and Pots in the Grasshopper Regionvolume 58
ISBN: 9780816514557 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

It has become increasingly evident, however, that to make inferences about prehistoric economic, social, and political activities through the patterning of ceramic variation, it is necessary to determine the location where the vessels were made. Through detailed analysis of manufacturing technology and design styles as well as the use of modern analytical techniques such as neutron activation analysis, Zedeno here demonstrates a broadly applicable methodology for identifying local and nonlocal...

Portraits of Clay: Potters of Mata Ortíz
ISBN: 9780816518913 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Not long ago, pottery was a lost art in Chihuahua, Mexico. But in the 1970s, near the ruins of Casas Grandes, an art revolution was born.

Today Casas Grandes pottery, made by hand from local clays and mineral colors by a handful of artists, claims high prices and sets the standard for contemporary pottery. Photographer Sandra Smith traveled to Mata Ortiz to photograph the potters and to record...
