Summary:"Traditional women potters working on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus, who coil build cooking pots, jars, jugs, ovens, and other clay containers on a slow moving turntable, use a technique reminiscent of ancient pottery. The women are the last of their generation. The similarities between traditional and ancient shapes, incised decorations, materials, and wood-burning kilns, provide an ideal ethnoarchaeological study of craft specialists"--Container excerpt.
