Abstract

This article describes how to expedite the time-consuming process of cataloging shards of pottery found at archaeological excavations. The authors devised a method to scan and then separate the potsherds by size and shape. Analyzing relics from the ancient city of Dor in this way found a provable evolution in the construction and design of pottery. Bowls were analyzed from several periods of the Iron Age and the curvature measurements, along with the tangent angle and carination points were mapped.
