This volume presents the papers given at an international conference on

"Functional Aspects of Egyptian Ceramics within their Archaeological

Context", which was held from 24th to 25th July, 2009 at the McDonald

Institute for Archaeological Research, University of Cambridge, UK. The

aim of this conference was to discuss Egyptian pottery in different

archaeological contexts and the employment of ceramics for understanding

these deposits. At the same time some archaeological contexts were

utilised to gain insights into the function of pottery, in order to

integrate both approaches.

The papers cover domestic, funerary, festival, and ritual contexts and

the ceramic finds within them. Additional topics are the widely

neglected reuse of pottery and how ceramic material can be interpreted

in its wider socio-economic context. The case studies discuss pottery

derived from many sites in Egypt from the Delta in the north to

Elephantine in the south, and cover a chronological range from the Old

Kingdom to the Coptic period. This broad approach ensures that the focus

was on the role of Egyptian pottery within past societies as seen

through various types of archaeological contexts. This volume provides

archaeological and ceramic insights that are significant beyond Ancient

Egypt.
