- Ready to take your first steps in ancient pottery? Whether you found some on a dig, on a walk, or in your back garden, it's amazing to hold a piece of history in your hands. What do archaeologists do with pottery? And how do you identify it? In this workshop, Community Archaeologist Johanna will introduce the basics.
Some 3D pottery for you to examine after the workshop:
1. Iron Age potsherd: skfb.ly/6SopY
2. Possible Iron Age potsherd: skfb.ly/6SopZ
3. Romano-British flagon: skfb.ly/KI7Y
4. Roman Samian ware: skfb.ly/FYDx
Fantastic, you are a great "find" Johanna. Would love to see a more advanced version with a wider range of pieces for comparison.

What a lovely welcoming smile Johanna. Thanks from an old codger for illuminating such dark times.
the older the codger the better (we are archaeologists after all!) Glad to be sharing smiles and archaeology with you
@Marcus Boden Tghanks for the heads up.
I could listen to that beautiful accent all day.

Must be a very competative field!
Hello beautiful ❤❤❤
She’s very sweet ❤❤❤
Ok mate 😅😅😅
This was great!! As an student (here in the states) MANY years ago, I was fortunate enough to get into the first 6-week archaeology course offered at the college that I attended. (I had to beg to get in since I had already graduated.) Subsequently was able to work on several prehistoric sites in Pennsylvania. I was so happy to find 'Time Team' and now it has led me to DigVentures! Thanks so much for a great pottery 'review class' for me. You both did a wonderful job! Please, more videos on pottery and EVERYTHING related to archaeology!!
Thanks Johanna & David. Interesting stuff, as ever. I´m loving these DV Fridays!
Thanks Doug - so glad you're joining us!
This is excellent
We don't eat
Thank you both for taking the time to stay in touch and share your knowledge with us. Hugs from Minnesota, Fern
Oh its made me miss you all so much. Stay safe everyone! Hope to see you all again soon.
You stay safe as well John! We'll all get together on a dig again at some point!
Catching up with these now as I've been working non stop at the prison recently.. so binge watching these today very interesting:-)
Some ancient Roman pottery was toilet paper. Romans made clay pots for voting. They would write their suggestions on it, and the Senate would vote by dropping white, or red rocks into it. And if it was a nay, it was broken apart , and all Romans had to wipe their butts with it.
.
Have you found nay?
Thank you and enjoyed demonstration. I know you said don't judge.. actually I did decent job because potters varied, some hurried so took time, some are artist. So thanks mucj
I need help of ID pottery shards found in a ravine , it could be from soldiers since there are war forts from the war of 1812 not far away from the location where i found the shard , the storm recently brought this into the streams cause i never saw anything like this before walking in the woods
Jhoanna, I follow your YT channel and I was very pleased to watch at your videos! Explanations available to all, professional, exhaustive. My congratulations: "BRAVA!"😍👍
I enjoyed this video, can you recommend any book that I use as reference to identifing pottery
Super Qty Olways for my....nice
Thanks so much for this presentation. Thanks both Johanna and David. I hope one day to make such clean and fitting :-) discoveries. Meanwhile, this adds to our understanding of the life of so many humans through the ages, and that I do enjoy. I "dig" DigVentures.
Well done Johanna & David.Very interesting and relaxing to watch. I look forwarding to catching up with you both on a dig some time. Unfortunately, not much Iron age or Roman pottery to be found in Australia! Patrick
Thank you for this fun and interesting video - 30 minutes well spent. I'm looking forward to workshop #2!
(Also, I love the 3D models, nice touch!)
First workshop for me x great thanks!
awesome! glad you liked it!
Thank you so much - enjoyed it thoroughly - is there a website or a pottery identification guide - similar to a bird id? II would love to know more.
Thanks Johanna & David excellent as always, do you ever have to treat the finds with chemicals or place them in air tight containers to stop them from deteriorating?
Toothbrushes , very important part of the archaeologists toolkit 🤗
Terrific...informative and engaging!
Thank you for the very informative and entertaining video! Hope you will teach us more :)
glad you like it! and we certainly will do more.... let us know if there are any topics you'd like us to cover!
Thank you! A note to the chap showing the pottery, the camera doesn't focus better by holding things too close to it.
you're welcome! and yes, note duly passed on...
@@Digventures Also having the face in the shot at that range while showing something causes focus to be off. So object to show centered and face on the side so the auto focus doesn't think the person is important and try to focus on them. If at a distance from the camera hold it in front of the face so it blocks part of it. Auto focus are made to target faces first.
Great thanks!
I found a lot of pottery some of them black some have drowning and shiny I want to what the age of potterys
