Excerpt from Designs on Prehistoric Hopi PotteryAs a, rule archeologists have relied on technique, form, and especi ally color, in the classification of Pueblo pottery, leading, on the technical side, .to the groups known as (a) rough, coiled ware, and (b) smooth, polished ware; and on that of form, to bowls, vases, jars, dippers, etc. When color is used as the basis of classification the divisions black and white, red, yellow, orange, and polychrome are readily differentiated. Classifications based on these data are useful, as they indicate cultural as 'well as geographical differences in Pueblo ceramics; but these-divisions can be used only with limita tions in a study of stages Of culture growth. The fact that they are not emphasized in the present article is not because their importance is overlooked, but rather for the purpose of supplementing them with a classification that is independent of and in some particulars more reliable for indicating chronology and culture distinctions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
