Ertebølle pottery in southern Sweden - a question of handicraft, networks and creolisation in a period of neolithisation
Författare
Summary, in English
In this paper the Ertebølle pottery will be in focus, and it serves as an entrance for a short discussion of its role in the time in question, as part of networks, creolization, and in the neolithisation. The interpretation of the meaning of the ceramics and the materiality gives further perspectives to interpret this early pottery handicraft, its technological conditions and artistic design. In this respect the Ertebølle pottery, and its grand and prolonged scientific interest, once again challenge preconceived notions to interpret Stone Age societies, and the meaning of material culture in a wider social context.
