[SGRP @TheSGRP]

We are at #EAA2024 - lots of pottery happening this morning in this session!

[SGRP @TheSGRP]

@ETheSherdnerd Exploring the intersection of Neoclassical economic theory and British imperial discourse is @ETheSherdnerd - asking how come this theortical model still holds so much influence in RB pottery studies today? Structural issues preventing us from moving on?

[SGRP @TheSGRP]

@ETheSherdnerd Sonja Willems and Viana Vincent present different appraches and methodolgies applied to pottery of different periods in French preventative archaeology- Roman seen as 'easier' due to est typologies etc! Artifical divisions of pottery = epistemilogical problems

[SGRP @TheSGRP]

@ETheSherdnerd Lack of means and how that impacts motiviation raised in discussion!

Can anyone help ID this #samian stamp?

[Andy Ward, BA (Hons), MA @ward_andrewArch]

Anyone good at reading potters stamps on #SamianWare? I cannot find who this Potter is; I'm reading it as VBAIM but it could be _MAIAB(reversed)A.

Any help much appreciated!

Cheers 🥂 😊

One of my favourite pieces of #Roman pottery - a fragment with an incised sketch of a big round human face. I hope this was made as a portrait of a real person - although I'm not sure they would have been flattered by it! #Archaeology #RomanArchaeology

As my birthday month is coming to an end, and eyes turn towards February, here's a photo of a gaming counter recycled from samian ware with a decoration that just looks so much like a lovely little heart.
