• To introduce different methods of molding clay, in this case, pinch-and-pull building.
• Forming (i.e. shaping)• Firing (baking in a kiln)• Glazing/decorating

• Pottery is our oldest handicraft. Fired clay is one of the few materials on earth that does not change with time, and clay has always been an abundant resource.
• The earliest function of clay was to line baskets as a way to waterproof them. Baskets were often used to carry water to crops, and the clay lining prevented leakage.

Why is clay so important?
• Eventually, early men and women discovered that they could harden the molded pottery in hot ashes and make sturdy containers.
Venus of Dolni Vestonice
The Czech prehistoric sculpture (Vestonicka Venuse) is one of the earliest examples of fired clay sculptures in the world (c. 28,000–24,000 BC).
It is a ceramic statuette and has four holes in the head, the function of which is unknown.
