The imported pottery collected from these sites suggests that none are earlier than the fourteenth or fifteenth century. Most of the datable material is probably of the sixteenth century: a little is later. The local pottery is interesting in that it mostly contrasts (especially in fabric) with that found on the Kenya coast. Characteristic of these wares, and also of those of the Banadir coast further north, is a rather sandy, fabric which fires dark red on the surface and is usually red or red-brown all through. In this respect it is similar to the pottery made nowadays at Barawa. No earlier sites have yet been found in this region. In fact we still have no material evidence of occupation in the early Islamic period anywhere between the Lamu archipelago and Gezir...","PeriodicalId":243659,"journal":{"name":"Azania:archaeological Research in Africa","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122669246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
