MPRG are pleased to announce the publication of:
A
Standard for Pottery Studies in Archaeology
This document was compiled by the three period-specific
pottery study groups (Prehistoric Ceramic Research Group, Study Group for Roman
Pottery, MPRG) and funded by Historic England with the aim of creating the
first, comprehensive, inclusive standard for working with pottery. The Standard
is intended for use in all types of archaeological project, including those run
by community groups, professional contractors and research institutions.
This standard takes the reader through the various stages
of an archaeological project, from planning and data collection through to
report writing and archiving, with the intention of informing not only pottery
specialists but also those who manage and monitor projects.
Hard copies will be available shortly from MPRG, PCRG and
SGRP, please follow this link for a PDF copy:
