Abstract
Loney's (2000) recent paper claims that American archaeologists have paid s cant attention to the study of technological, especially ceramic, change. W e argue that, in fact, interest in such change processes has grown greatly in recent decades and that Loney has overlooked much relevant literature. W e support our general argument with a catalog of recent behavioral research on technological change.
