One class of artifacts recovered is tin glazed earthenware, a popular but expensive type of ceramic produced throughout the XVIIth century. The presence of tin-glazed earthenware has been used to infer the relative wealth and status of people who lived in particular areas of the site. Analysis of this class of artifact has also helped to determine trade patterns to the colony, through examination of the amounts of vessels from different European pottery producing countries. Results from the analysis show that England, the Netherlands and Iberia were main sources of tin-glazed earthenware sent to Ferryland, as part of the involvement in the trade of Newfoundland cod.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
