Cultural Evolution and Ceramic Artifacts: Archaeology, Cybernetics and Psychoanalytic Theory

by Richard J Wood and Roger H Wood

A wide range of ceramics, both functional vessels and ritual or ceremonial artifacts, is examined. A cybernetic and evolutionary approach to ceramics is taken instead of trying to identify discrete cultural types; it relies upon a cultural definition of systemic social change and adaptive socio-economic behavior.
