Virtual Workshop "Scientific Analyses on Pottery Finds from Africa", June 6-7 2024

Pottery production on the African continent is among the oldest in the world, and in many regions, the practice has endured into modern times. Compared to other parts of the world, the study of pottery in and from Africa using modern scientific techniques is still in its infancy. This workshop offers a platform for researchers working on pottery finds from Africa. The program covers all aspects of scientific analyses of pottery from any archaeological period in Africa.
