The First Steps on the Field: Foreword
p. 12
Texte intégral
1This chapter presents the elements that should be taken into consideration on the arrival of a ceramic specialist on an archaeological fieldwork mission. The specialist may have already defined the general strategy with the field director, bur this can nonetheless be adapted in view of the ceramics discovered during the excavation (see Section i.1). For example, the number of potsherds unearthed per day can vary from a few to a few thousand depending on the context excavated. Moreover, the implementation of a zone devoted to the processing of the ceramic study and its storage is crucial (see Sections i.2 and i.3). This zone must be comfortable enough to work in and set up in the best possible conditions (in the shade when possible, with enough space to spread the potsherds our on the same surface) and sustainable for the duration of the excavation.
