I finally realized why old pottery shards matter so much

Dropped $35 on a book about identifying ancient pottery types and it totally changed how I look at field work. Now I see how one broken rim piece can tell you where a whole settlement traded goods 2,000 years ago. Has anyone else had a simple field guide click things into place like that?

Isn't it wild how one small guide can change how you see literally everything else around you?

@kai_stone99 My buddy Mike bought a rock book and now he can't stop identifying parking lot gravel.
