Hello all,
I just thought I would highlight two round tables lunches at the SHA
in Austin. The round table I am leading on Saturday is intended to
be a "bring and share" style meeting. If you are working on ceramics
from an archaeological or historical project, or if you curate a
collection of ceramics from the region, please bring along fragments
or vessels to pass around at lunch!
Cheers
Tim

Title: Identifying Asian ceramics (R3)
Leader: Linda Pomper
This roundtable luncheon will focus on some of the problems in
identifying and dating Asian ceramics from various sites as well as
the questions that concern scholars who study Chinese porcelain.
Saturday, January 8, 2011, 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.
Please Touch: Pottery Show and Tell (R6)
Leader: Timothy Scarlett
Abstract: The 2011 meeting includes several paper sessions dedicated
to the analysis and interpretation of pottery and ceramic materials.
This round table serves as a venue to which people can bring samples
of locally manufactured ceramic material to pass around the table. The
primary focus will be "show and tell" so each participant is
encouraged to bring sample fragments. Discussion might also include
good research design, analytical routes, comparative study, etc.
