Description: | My ethnoarchaeological experience among the Kalinga changed forever the way I look at pottery. When I pick up a vessel and see the patterns of soot, I can also smell the smoky wood fi re as it curls around the pot and then rises slowly to the roof. The charred residue over the lip makes me envision a boil-over and a doused fi re because a cook was distracted by a fussy baby. As I run my fi ngers over the surface of a vessel I can see the clay-stained fi ngers of the potter, skillfully shaping the wall with a paddle and anvil as she jokes with the other potters. |
