These observations are interpreted in terms of the craft traditions in the region\u2019s pre history, discussed with respect to their potential implications, and put in the context of similar traditions<br>in Asia. The discussion points to a limited, selective transference of organic tempering technology from<br>the east to Sweden. The experience of the authors in digitising and working with these data is then used<br>as the basis for a discussion on the challenges and potentials of using large-scale multi-site databases for<br>synthesis research. The conclusion is that the potential for creating and exploring new lines of enquiry<br>into the material outweighs the difficulties<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/umu.diva-portal.org\/smash\/record.jsf?pid=diva2:1771195&amp;language=en\" class=\"ek-link\">Upscaling ceramic thin sections through a database: a multi-site analysis of organic tempers in Swedish prehistoric pottery<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stilborg, O., Sj\u00f6lander, M., &amp; Buckland, P.
