A relevant website for pottery studies

TACB (Thissen Archaeological Ceramics Bureau)
More likely than not, pottery sherds will form the bulk of your excavation, filling up bags, crates, depots and museum store rooms. Coping with this mass of stuff is tough and boring job, and there are not too many mad persons willing to deal with it over a prolonged stretch of time... TACB (Thissen Archaelogical Ceramics Bureau) is a commercial service specialising in bulk-processing your Neolithic pottery, be it from the Balkans, Turkey or Syria. Read more on
