Accepted Paper:

Import of pottery and food consumptions of the Poor Clare Sisters of Saint Andrew’s convent, Ponta Delgada  
N'zinga Oliveira (CHAM) José Luís Neto Tânia Manuel Casimiro (FCSH-UNL)

Paper short abstract:

Ceramic artifacts and animal remains discovered in Ponta Delgada allow us to infer about the city’s daily habits and routines.

Paper long abstract:

In August 2014 were held works that forced the opening and removal of lands, in order to install an elevator shaft coupled to the outside of the central nucleus of Carlos Machado Museum, to allow and ensure universal access to the renovated museum space. To fulfill this objective, it was needed to revolve lands from the old quarter of the convent garden, once the museum is housed in a former convent of Poor Clare Sisters. Despite the limited area opened, it was possible to collect a very coherent set of ceramic materials, dated between XVII and XVIII centuries that establish a framework of imports and consumptions that contradict the written documentation usually evoked, as well as complement the established with a more rich and diverse outlook.
