Processes related to pottery, including making and firing sculpture and artistic pots. Ceramics is one of the oldest major cultural technologies. It is very likely that the firing of clays was accidentally discovered beneath campfires. From the earliest times figurines with sacred significance have been made along with useful pots and bowls. Incised designs and decorative colorations are cultural markers that enable archaeologists to date archaeological finds with precision.
Ceramicist’s of today benefit from millennia of experimentation. Artists make fired sculpture of great beauty and master potters make pots that rival the greatest artworks made.
