\nClay was the basic material for the production of any type of container in antiquity. Clay is a deposit of the smallest particles produced by the weathering of certain rocks. It is composed mainly of aluminium, silicates and water. It is widely available in surface and underground layers, largely varying from each other in composition and colour according to the conditions of deposition. When fired, clay becomes extremely hard and water-proof (baked clay is also known as “terracotta”).
\nThe potter\u2019s wheel was introduced in the Aegean at the end of the 3rd millennium BC.
\nClay vases were used in all spheres of life, from household activities and trade to religious ceremonies and burial. Cooking and storage vessels were usually made of coarse fabric and left plain. Those that were destined for banquets, rituals, funerary ceremonies or commercial exchanges were finely made and lavishly decorated. Their production was a complex process involving several stages.
\nPottery manufacture and decoration may vary considerably among different regions and periods. Ancient Greek potting and vase-painting techniques are known, among others, though a number of representations preserved on clay plaques and vases of the Archaic and Classical period.<\/p>\n
