Although pottery is one of the major find categories in archaeology, its potential is still insufficiently used in Central European research, because it is used for chronological matters, but hardly with regard to its manifold historical significance. The eleven contributions of this volume aim at closing this research gap. An introduction [Stockhammer] and general considerations of the potential and limitations of the interpretation of pottery [Knopf] are followed by research on taphonomic and spatial analyses of pottery from a Linear Pottery find layer [Wolfram], on the metrological properties of Final Neolithic pots [Dzbynski], on wheel-thrown pottery of the Čhernyakhov Culture [Schultze], on the social significance of Mycenaean pottery [Stockhammer], on Late Bronze Age pottery from Zug-Sumpf in Switzerland [Bolliger Schreyer], on representations of praying people on Hinkelstein pottery [Jung], on the social dimensions of pottery production [Röder], on pottery and cultural adaptation in the New World [Schreg] as well as on pottery production, inter-ethnic relations, and social identities in western Africa [Hahn].
