The Implications of Applying the Vienna System to Published Data on Prehistoric Pottery in Lower Egypt

Pottery discovered at Lower Egyptian sites has several features that are distinctly different to those of pottery from Upper Egyptian sites. In this paper, the manner in which data on pottery fabric from Lower Egyptian sites has been classified and presented in published reports will be reviewed an...
