Details
Nderit Pottery is a type of ceramic vessel found at archaeological sites in Africa, particularly Tanzania and Kenya. Nderit Pottery, previously known as ceramic tradition "Gumban A ware," was initially documented by Louis Leakey in the 1930's at sites in the Central Rift Valley of Kenya.Stylistic characteristics of Nderit Pottery discovered in the Central Rift Valley include an exterior decoration of basket-like and triangular markings into the clay’s surface. The vessels here also have intensely scored interiors that do not appear to follow a distinct pattern. Nderit Ware exemplifies the transition from Saharan wavy-line early Holocene pottery towards the basket-like designs of the middle Holocene. Lipid residue found on Nderit Pottery can be used to analyze the food products stored in them by early pastoralist societies.
