Abstract

In this special issue, we focus particularly on tackling long-debated problems and newly emerging issues related to the origins of ceramics in the Old World. We introduce new case studies and critical reviews of existing work from a variety of regions: Europe, Southwest Asia, Africa, and East, Northeast, and Southeast Asia, extending to Micronesia. We first outline debates and problems, some relevant worldwide, then introduce these issues as addressed by each contributing author outlining the main arguments of each contribution.
