| Abstract: |
The ethnographical evidence of long-distance transport and the effects of market demand are examined. The efficiency of various methods of production; the stimulus provided by the individual potter; the cultural significance of some methods of pottery manufacture; and the results of non-economic sanctions are all shown to cause or inhibit innovation in ceramic technology. The use of the potter's wheel, and similar devices, and the reasons for its adoption or rejection are discussed. Au |
