[Herbert C. Kraft et al. (1994)] least similar to the other samples. That same sample was also spatially the farthest removed from the other samples. This study therefore hints at possible spatial patterning of ceramic style at Eaton. Tracy Wright is now expanding the study to investigate this possibility. Ceramics From time to time, I have been asked whether any shell-tempered sherds have been recovered from Eaton. In order to answer that question, Juana Colon examined 6,847 sherds, 24.7% of the total sample of 28,844. The units sampled came from all areas of the site. Thirteen sherds (0.085%) were found to be shell tempered. A small quantity of dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) was placed on each of these sherds to test for a reaction. Eleven of the shell-tempered sherds were found near one another and are believed to have come from the same vessel. The remaining two shell-tempered sherds were found nearby and apparently represent two additional vessels. Such small portions of these three vessels are represented that it is not possible to determine if they are stylistically different from other vessels at Eaton. Tracy Wright attempted to determine whether matrilocal residence at Eaton might be inferred from the study of ceramic style. Since Iroquoian women of the same lineage are commonly assumed to have lived in the same longhouse,
