Ceramics has been one of the most important artifacts in archaeology as it is useful in determining the relative chronology of an archaeological settlement. The earliest evidence of ceramics coincides with the beginning of agriculture. The appearance of ceramics may be linked to the emergence of the concept of long-time storage. As ceramics entered human history, it increased in variety and spatial distribution. It also serves as a major source of information on several intangible components of culture. To understand archaeological ceramics, it is necessary to understand contemporary traditional ceramics and its production techniques. The analysis of archaeological ceramics involves three stages: categorization, classification and characterization. This lecture will introduce the history and identity of archaeological ceramics, the significance of ethno-archaeological studies in understanding ceramics and the importance of identifying attributes to determine its typology and relative chronology.
