Pottery across the ages

After Man had learned to make a fire, it didn’t take long before he discovered that anything made of clay became permanently hard after being in a hot bonfire for some time.

Communities all over the world learned to make pots and fire them in bonfires. The methods used were very similar.

More preparation and more brushwood was necessary if a lot of pots were to be dried and fired. But it was a more efficient method than firing pots singly and losses through cracking and exploding were fewer.

Firing many pots together was also a periodic communal event, needing a team spirit to keep the fire going the whole day.
