Mark,
In Trenton, New Jersey, USA we have also used pottery patents very
successfully on waster dumps dating to the first half of the 20th century to
help sort out manufacturers and better understand the changing technology.
Trenton had many potteries (and many patents) and several of them dumped
waster materials along the Delaware River creating thick long bands of
broken ceramics. The U.S. Patent Office is difficult to search but Google
Patents is easy to use. www.google.com/patents
I hope this helps,

Thanks for replying Monique,
At the moment I am simply trying to compile a list of archaeological texts
that, to some degree, reference original letters patents in artefact
analysis or site interpretation, ultimately I am looking at how patent
information is utilised by historical archaeologists (thus your reports
would be relevant to what I'm looking for). I understand the request
potentially encompasses an enormous breadth of work, but that may be more
beneficial to me than not.
Regards,Mark

> Good Morning,
> Apologies in advance for the rather vague request, but I am seeking
recommendations on post-nineteenth century reports/texts that specifically
reference patented artefacts and materials within a site. I am not
necessarily phased on the volumes of the objects themselves, but simply that
references are made to the letters patent in the report (used for dating,
identification, etc.). Ideally these would relate to Australian sites;
however, the absence of such reports has made me widen my parameters. I
would greatly appreciate any and all assistance people can offer.
