Lapita (Oceanic ceramic styles, Oceanic, ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name))

 

Note: An early ceramics style that is features elaborate geometric motifs on a range of vessel shapes and distributed widely throughout Oceanic cultures. The distinct patterns were created using a toothed stamp of a single design element that is combined with other stamps to form a pattern. These designs occasionally include anthropomorphic faces and figures. In addition to vessels, freestanding Lapita pottery figures depicting human and animal subjects have also been unearthed. The style is named after a site in New Caledonia and an ancient Pacific culture.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 是一種早期的陶器風格,其特色是在一個船艦形狀的範圍內之精細繁複的幾何基本圖案,並且廣泛流傳至大洋洲的各個文化之中。這些鮮明的圖案是以有著單一設計元素的鋸齒狀圖章,結合數個其他的圖章以形成一道圖案。這些設計圖案偶爾也包含了被賦予人形的臉譜與人像。除了船艦之外,已出土的文物也包括了未固定起來的拉匹達陶製人像,描繪出人類與動物的主題。此一風格是以新喀里多尼亞的一處遺址與一個古老的太平洋文化為名的。  
Dutch ..... Vroege keramiekstijl gekenmerkt door complexe geometrische motieven op vaten in allerlei vormen en die wijd verspreid voorkomen binnen alle culturen van Oceanië. De opvallende patronen zijn gecreëerd met behulp van een getand stempel met één ontwerpelement dat in combinatie met andere stempels een patroon vormt. De ontwerpen tonen soms ook antropomorfische gezichten en figuren. Naast vaatwerk zijn ook vrijstaande Lapita-aardewerkfiguren met menselijke en dierlijke thema's opgegraven. De stijl is genoemd naar een vindplaats in Nieuw-Caledonië en naar een oude cultuur van de Stille Oceaan.
