Petrographic insights into Indian Ocean earthenwares
New approaches to old questions
Cuisine and culture-contact
Diet and material culture are interlinked, and examination of organic residues in ceramic vessels permits the simultaneous study of both; exemplified here in the analysis of early-medieval pottery from England and Denmark for biomarkers indicative of fish processing, a possible dietary indicator of Scandinavian migration during the Viking Age ( c . AD 793–1066). While almost a quarter of sampled Danish pots were used to cook fish, diagnostic aqua…
Craftwell
Background: There has been increasing interest in creativity, heritage and nature to improve health-related outcomes. However, limited research has examined the intersection of heritage crafting in the context of natural spaces. This study aims to explore the feasibility and acceptability of an archaeologically informed outdoor heritage crafting intervention. Methods: A mixed-methods single group before and after feasibility study was conducted. …
Aceramic Revolution? Understanding Technological Continuity and Change in Viking Age England
THE ARRIVAL OF THE POTTERS’ WHEEL in late 9th-century England heralded major changes in ceramic manufacturing practice. Whether it appeared before or coincided with Scandinavian settlement of England in the ad 870s has been the subject of much debate, yet still it is poorly understood why its use was restricted to areas settled by Scandinavians, a group traditionally viewed by English archaeologists as aceramic. Our understanding of the origins o…
Purposefully purple
The rise of purple glazed pottery in fifteenth-century England represented a major change in the character of domestic material culture. These wares typically evolved from the orange bodied, green glazed pottery of the later medieval period and were produced by a number of centres. This paper examines the technological advancements made by potters working at West Cowick (East Yorkshire) as they navigated the transition from green to purple glazed…
Torksey After the Vikings
In ad 872–3 a large Viking Army overwintered at Torksey, on the River Trent in Lincolnshire. We have previously published the archaeological evidence for its camp, but in this paper we explore what happened after the Army moved on. We integrate the findings of previous excavations with the outcomes of our fieldwork, including magnetometer and metal-detector surveys, fieldwalking and targeted excavation of a kiln and cemetery enclosure ditch. We p…
Ceramic hinterlands
The cremation cemeteries of early Anglo-Saxon England have long been recognized as central places, serving discrete territories or catchment areas. Their prominent locations, size and proximity to prehistoric and Roman routeways and monuments have been viewed as indicators of their centrality. Yet, little is known about the extent of these hinterlands or where one catchment area ended, and another began. Focusing on urns from two cremation cemete…
Situation Vacant
The potters’ wheel was reintroduced to England in the late ninth century. It spread rapidly throughout eastern England, yet little is known about the mechanisms that facilitated its dissemination and success. This article presents the results of multidisciplinary research into the diffusion of this technology. Focusing on pottery production in late Saxon Newark, Nottinghamshire, an industry thought to have been founded by a potter(s) who had relo…
Pottery Production in Anglo-Scandinavian Torksey (Lincolnshire)
ENGLAND IN THE 9TH CENTURY witnessed a revolution in pottery production. For the first time since the Roman period, pottery was wheel-thrown and produced on a near industrial scale. Research into this ceramic revolution has focused on chronology and, in particular, whether the technology was introduced before Scandinavian settlement. Yet, little attention has been paid to technological choices made by the potters or how these choices were influen…
