The Ethnoarchaeological study on pottery production in PNG for the understanding of Jomon Pottery types.

对巴布亚新几内亚东开普地区、瓦里岛和塞皮克河中游地区的家庭陶器生产进行了为期3年的民族考古学研究，其主要目的是通过采访女性陶艺家如何将技术知识和观念传递给女儿，通过对陶器在地域空间中不同环境下的分布规律的研究，不仅技术上的成就和优势，而且制陶者的宇宙观和宗教地位，是一个地区陶器生产主导地位的确立和陶器类型风格变化的决定性因素。

The Ethnoarchaeological study on domestic pottery production in East Cape district and Wari Island as well as Middle Sepik River in Papua New Guinea was curried out during 3 years.The main purpose of the field research was to establish the theoretical framework for the understanding and modeling of Jomon Pottery type by interviewing the way how women potters transmit the technological knowledge and ideas to their daughters,and by studying the patterns of dispersal of the potteries in a areal space in various context.Not only technological achievement and superiority but also potter's cosmological aspects and religious status are responsible for the establishment of the leading position in pottery production in an area and the determinant factor for stylistic changes in pottery type.
