Some of the porcelain types are identical to those found in Mexico and Macao which indicates that Jingdezehn was an international porcelain product site and Chinese ceramic was a global product.

The Port of San Blas was a short living port which can be precisely dated. Henceforth the unearthed porcelains mostly fall into the period when the port was actually in use though some pieces show that the port was still in use after it was officially closed as a port.

The relation between Manila and Nagasaki remained a short period since Japan decided to close the country in 1639. Indeed, the Manila-Nagasaki trade was practiced from 1570 to 1639. Nagasaki’s presence meant little to Manila though there are some interesting aspects such as migration, art influence to New Spain via Manila, and Japanese ceramic trade (Reid 1993).

An archaeological inspection of the Port of San Blas carried out in August 2016 and 2017 by SAS-INAH, yielded a collection of Chinese porcelain shards related to the transpacific commerce. The history of San Blas in the Pacific coast of Mexico is interesting because officially it was an active and important port for just a few years of the 18th century. Furthermore, it was also a stop for the Manila Galleon route while navigating from Manila in the Philippines to its final port in Acapulco. The kinds of porcelain recovered beyond the expected concordance with the dates of the emplacement make it noteworthy that San Blas was active beyond the period in the 18th century when it was an official Maritime Department of New S...

Their clandestine commercial activity in Guangdong and later establishing Macao as an official commercial base favoured greatly the ceramic export to Lisbon and further distributed them to other European port cities. Shortly after the Spaniards began the Manila galleon trade exporting Asian goods to America further on to Seville from 1565. Two Iberian monarchies were connected to Asian trade and were strongly influenced by the Asian material culture importing luxury goods and absorbing into their culture as a symbol of wealth. However, the archaeological facts do not match this history since there is a scarcity of Chinese porcelain in Spain whereas there are abundant porcelain materials in Portugal. The discussion will be focused on the excavated pieces in Spain and Portugal and study the flow of Chinese ceramics during the 16th...
