Comentarios: | North Devon gravel-tempered ware is one of at least three utilitarian pottery types imported to the Americas from the North Devon region of England. North Devon sgraffito ware is identified by its incised slip decoration of brown motifs on a yellow ground. North Devon gravel-free (also known as North Devon smooth or North Devon plain) is distinguished by the absence of the gravel temper. North Devon gravel tempered ware is so far the only North Devon variety reported from Spanish colonial sites, and it occurs in Spanish Florida contexts of the early eighteenth century. |
