The Ancient Egyptians of this period had pots such as vases, bottles and dishes which were widely produced and in many different shapes and sizes. There were small jars which were specifically for perfume and large flasks for water. Pots and jars were for many different uses. They were made from clay which was readily available in Egypt. Potters would knead the clay with their feet, and then shape it with their hands. Some potters used the Potter’s wheel.
