References

page 1066 note 1 We are, for instance, within an ace of dating the successive waves of migration from Eurasia into America, a process in which a full analysis of the ceramics of North-East Asia and of America is a necessary preliminary to a final conclusion.

page 1067 note 1 Dr. Wu's researches were conducted at a London technical school, but he will find, if he is not already aware of the fact, that most of the processes there conjured up by him are still in use in China. Students of Chinese ceramics would do well to study local practice (and local forms of peasant ware) in China, as is to be seen from descriptions and illustrations in R. P. Hommel's China at Work.
