During the past few years, many publications about computer applications in the field of drawing, classification and analysis of archaeological pottery have been presented at various congresses by various researchers. This paper will review and analyze the most relevant works published so far. It focuses on computer applications oriented towards the graphical visualization and analysis of data ...

Using the example of pottery imported into the Channel ports of southern England, an approach to examining the role of pottery in the emergence and mediation of coastal communities is proposed here. Building on recent scholarship, it is argued that it is no longer tenable to see pottery as a carrier of identity, or as part of a ‘cultural package’, with meaning emerging with identity as people i...

The water supply in dry land depends on the rainfall, which causes agricultural constraints and limited supply. pottery irrigation method is considered capable of overcoming shortages during season. Pottery uses porous clay, so slowly comes out wet surrounding soil. research aimed to study influence subsurface with without mulching watermelon growth soil properties clayey Alfisol sandy entisol....

Fine ware pottery from the Etruscan town of Tarquinia, whose necropolis in inscribed list UNESCO sites, was studied by means near-infrared (NIR) diffuse reflection spectroscopy. The aim to investigate correlation between firing conditions illitic-calcareous local clay, terms temperature and atmosphere, physical properties ceramic paste, usually exploited archaeologists for a classification sher...

Abstract Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was applied to a set of microsamples Apulian red‐figured pottery coming from the archaeological sites Altamura, Arpi, Conversano, Monte Sannace, Taranto, and Pella. EIS data using Fe (CN) 6 3− /Fe 4− as redox probe yields information on roughness, porosity, shape, size distribution inclusions in clay body. Impedance parameters after equivale...

Virtual Pottery is an interactive audiovisual piece that uses hand gesture to create 3D pottery objects and sound shape. Using the OptiTrack motion capture (Rigid Body) system at TransLab in UCSB, performers can take a glove with attached trackers, move the hand in x, y, and z axis and create their own sound pieces. Performers can also manipulate their pottery pieces in real time and change arr...

S weet wine, unblended, served Odysseus well in the escape with his companions from the Cyclops' cave during his epic return to Ithaca. The wine, a gift from Maron, grandson of Dionysus, was exceptional. " When he drank it he mixed twenty parts of water to one of wine, and yet the fragrance from the mixing bowl was so exquisite that it was impossible to refrain from drinking. " Odysseus carried...
