Abstract
Fragments of pottery are among the most frequently encountered remains recovered in the course of archaeological excavations, but their potential as sources of evidence is seldom fully explored. Here, pottery from a Romano-British site in the London area is discussed as an example of what can be learned about pottery production through a numerical approach to the evidence.
