dc.description.abstract	Baleni is a mineral spring in the South African Lowveld where radiocarbon and ceramic evidence indicates a 2000-year salt-production record. Excavations have found that episodic production during this period closely mirrored that of more recent ethnographic accounts. Use-alteration of ceramics clearly indicates the important role these vessels played in the production process.	en_US
