Abstract:
The analysis of the earthenware pottery from Gua Sireh and Lubang Angin is presented in this chapter. Descriptions and analyses of fabrics, vessel shapes, rim forms and types of decoration are presented for the two excavated sites. This analysis will be along similar lines to those carried out by earlier researchers on the pottery assemblages from other sites in the region, such as Tanjong Kubor in Sarawak (Solheim 1965), Kupang and Sungai Lumut in Brunei (Omar 1981), and the Madai and Baturong sites in Sabah (Bellwood 1988). In addition, some additional data are presented from the use, on selected sherds, of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction and neutron activation analysis. Some sherds from the Niah sites have also been included in these studies for comparative purposes.
