The excavations at Must Farm led to the recovery of Britain's most complete and coherent domestic pottery assemblage from a Bronze Age site. Here, for the first time, archaeologists have been provided with a snapshot of an intact household ceramic service, illustrating the range of vessels that families deployed for cooking and dining around mid-ninth century BC. The extraordinary preservation has provided new insights into many aspects of pottery production and consumption in this period, with scientific analysis giving exciting glimpses into what was stored, cooked and served in different vessels. This talk examines the character, content, and context of use of the pottery from Must Farm, and considers the ways people made, utilised and deposited pottery in everyday routines.
