Lapita in the far west

Since the Lapita Homeland Project of 1985 there has been an upsurge of research on Lapita in the Bismarck Archipelago. A description and comparison of two Lapita pottery assemblages from the Arawe Islands and Anir in the Bismarck Archipelago is presented in order to explore the social and economic relationships between these early communities which produced and used the ware. Assemblages from a third area, Mussau, are then compared in order to show that these three assemblages have many similarities in both decoration and production which are best explained in terms of social interaction
