Site Structure and Ceramic Behaviour of a Protohistoric Cree Aggregation Campsite

A report on the ceramic assemblages from the Selkirk Composite site of Bushfield West in western Canada. Moving away from the stylistic interpretation of the ceramics, typical of studies of this type of site, Gibson presents a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the assemblage. He looks at how and where vessels were used at the site and the domestic tasks and activity areas associated with them, revealing important aspects of human behaviour at this late pre-European contact site.
