> The Maryland Archaeological Conservation Laboratory at Jefferson Patterson
> Park and Museum is pleased to announce the addition of several new

> (www.jefpat.org/diagnostic/index.htm<http://www.jefpat.org/diagnostic/index.
> htm>).  In the Small Finds section, Sara Rivers-Cofield has added a

> spur styles over time.  In the Post-Colonial Ceramics section of the
> website, several new essays have been added.  The most detailed of these

> the website, entitled Less Commonly Found Wares has been created,
> describing
> post-colonial wares and decorative types less commonly recovered on
> archaeological sites.  The web pages included there will provide visitors
> with a general description of these ceramics and offer reference sources
> that can be read for more in-depth information.  Categories included to
> date
> include a type of Japanese overglaze porcelain called Geisha girl
> porcelain,
> relief molded stoneware, and felspathic stoneware.  Categories to be added
> in the future include sprig molded wares, Rockingham, yellow ware, decal
> decorated wares and alphabet wares.

> This typology focuses on the cup and bowl shapes that became common types
> and as such are regularly recovered from archaeological sites. Beyond
> describing and illustrating these common types, this study will document
> their chronological development and the terminology used to describe them
> by
> the potters who produced them and the merchants who bought and sold them.
