Abstract

In some instances it is very difficult to distinguish between cord-impressed and fabric-impressed surfaces on aboriginal pottery. This problem is discussed with particular reference to a protohistoric Woodland jar from western Michigan. It is suggested that fabric impressing and cord marking are closely related techniques which stem from the same cultural tradition.
