“…The slightly later Hayes 8 and Hayes 9 also occur with relative frequency. After the second century the range becomes much narrower and finds of the ware become rarer, as we would expect (Hawthorne 1997(Hawthorne , 1998. The latest pieces of ARS from Saniat Gebril would appear to date to the fourth century, although fifth-century forms are not uncommon from sites elsewhere in the wadi.…”

“…• commensality, that is how food is consumed, on which vessel size may hold significant information (cf. Hawthorne, 1997;1998); • dietary patterns, that is what is eaten, for which the shapes or the properties of the surface of vessels may be relevant, although containers used in the preparation of food may be more significant than those used in its consumption in this respect (cf. Bats, 1987;); • commercial interaction -for example, stylistic innovation can be indicative of increased competition, social and economic, which might additionally be stimulated by imports (cf.…”

“…This is interesting in the light of what we have just seen about the numbers of form s, because if the size of the forms is examined a new pattern emerges. I have already argued elsewhere that a more convincing explanati on for the decline of the African sherd counts th an the usual economic one is that the size of the vessels in the third century increased to such a size that far fewer pots were needed (Hawthorne 1996(Hawthorne , 1997, forthcoming a) for a detailed explanati on of the mathematics of these calculations, including the interpl ay between vessel capacity, breakage rates and archaeological occurrence). Thi s is all the more interesting when it …”
