This journal article describes the restoration (reconstruction) of archaeological pottery (sherds, ceramics) at the Milwaukee Museum. Sherds are assembled, marked, and then consolidated and/or glued (cemented, adhered) using Ambroid, which can be diluted or reversed (removed) with C.P. Acetone. Fragments required for laboratory testing (analysis) should not be consolidated. Small patches (infills) are made of plaster of Paris to which powdered pigment has been added. Two criteria for the reconstruction of pottery vessels (pots) are required: 1) enough horizontal curves to determine the diameter and 2) an adequate vertical curve to determine an outline (profile). Establish the rim and shoulder by taking impressions of existing sherds. Record profiles and measurements. Procedures for making a template and constructing a turntable are described, as are instructions for the reconstruction of vessels using quick-setting molding plaster mixed with a hardening agent (eg. Dextrine). This is a reference for the reproduction (molding, casting) of clay vessels.
