Something's afoot with our pottery!
Why do archaeologists love to collect pottery sherds? If they find enough pieces, they might have enough to reconstruct a vessel–that they can keep their candy in! Smashed vessels are the original 3D puzzles.
In this episode, Dr. Steve and Gary discuss how the scattered sherds collected over sixteen seasons at Tall el-Hammam are proving to be a collection archaeologists have not seen elsewhere in the Levant.
Also, watch and see what is afoot with a foot from a footed vessel!
