This paper comes as a response to the publication of "Digital Data in Archaeology: The Database," by Harrison Eiteljorg, II, in the CSA Newsletter, XXV, 2; September, 2012. In this paper we present the database developed by the research group "New Perspectives on Ancient Pottery" (NPAP), of the University of Amsterdam, in 2007-2012. In presenting our project database, including its aims and user experiences, we want to tackle some of the questions posed by Mr. Eiteljorg.
