Abstract

Tenacity of slip adherence on MM II and LM IB pottery is investigated using the SEM. Results indicate that the degree of adherence is due to an advanced vitrification which causes a glassy interface to form between the slip and the fabric of vessels. Superior adherence, moreover, is related to the darkness of the final slip color, which generally is closer to black on MM II vessels.
