	abstract = {The popularity of Rhenish stoneware during the 17th and 18th centuries is observed time and again during excavations of colonial sites and shipwrecks. The ubiquitous Frechen Bartmann bottles and Westerwald blue-grey tankards are the most common vessels. This reputation supercedes their interpretive value, however, since they are not studied as widely as they are recovered. The Ferryland site, Newfoundland, provides a wonderful assemblage of Rhenish stoneware spanning two centuries. Complimenting the bottles and tankards are Frechen drinking pots and jugs, and ornately decorated baluster jugs produced in Raeren and the Westerwald. A research trip to the Rhineland provided an opportunity to view a range of complete vessels and open communication with European colleagues. Moreover, examining the source of Rhenish stoneware affords a new perspective on the role and use of these wares in the colonies.},
