  • Ceramics at the First Baptist Church of America
    Ceramics at the First Baptist Church of America Chelsea Sokolow The First Baptist Church of America 75 North Main Street Providence, RI 02903 (401) 454-3418 The study of Ceramics is a valuable resource in historical archaeology. The examination of ceramic pieces can aid in dating a site, reveal information about trade and production, as well as provide insight into the social practices surrounding an archaeological site. The variations in style and material composition are linked the geographic origin, the production methods of ceramic artifacts, and are indicators of class status in a community. When a ceramic assemblage is created the first step is to identify the artifacts. The three main attributes from which ceramic pieces are identified consist of the paste, surface treatment, and decoration (in that order). The paste is the type of the clay from which the pieces is made. The surface treatment examines the manner in which the vessel has been covered or glazed. The decoration consists of the methods, motifs, designs, and colors used to decorate the piece. (FLMNH) In general, the quality of the ceramic is directly connected to the composition of the clay and the temperature at which it has been fired. As the availability of high-heat kilns and advanced technology grew during the 18th and 19th centuries, the presence of higher quality ceramics also increased. The higher the temperature at which a piece is fired the less porous it becomes, making it more functionally useful. Discovered at the First Baptist Church of America were various types of ceramics pieces including coarse earthenware, refined earthenware, stoneware, ironstone, and porcelain pieces.

Box 2744 Mobile, Alabama 36652-2744 Association CSS Alabama 34 Avenue de New York 75116 Paris 11 November 2001 ii Abstract During June and July 2001, the American CSS Alabama Association and the French Association CSS Alabama carried out an archaeological investigation of the remains of the Confederate commerce raider CSS Alabama. Under the direction of Dr. Gordon P. Watts Jr., American and French archaeologists, French volunteer divers and French Navy personnel cooperated in an examination of the wreck that took place between 6 June and 4 July. Objectives for the investigation included video and 35mm photographic documentation of the wreck, limited test excavation in the officer’s quarters and recovery of selected artifacts exposed on the bottom surface. Unfortunately the most important objective, video and 35mm documentation of the wreck site to generate data that would generate data for the production of a site mosaic and computer model was compromised by unsuccessful efforts to obtain French authorization for use of the U. S. Navy research submarine NR-1 or a U. S. Navy remote operated vehicle. On site research was limited to test excavation in the officer’s quarters and recovery of selected artifacts including one of the two Blakely patent British Royal Navy Pattern 32-pounders carried by the CSS Alabama.

They and their fathers before them have grown up with, lived with, made and developed the English pottery trade. The pot-bank and the shard ruck are, to them, as familiar, and as full of old associations, as the cowshed to the countryman or the nets along the links to the fishing popula- tion.
