life of a potter in Medieval time
Pottery was an important method of producing cheap cooking pots, bowls, jugs, etc. When a potter settled near a village, he started out by building an oven for his pottery (called a kiln) then he began to dig for clay, the material used to make the pottery. He would prepare it by removing any rocks or gravel, and he would add water to keep it soft.
Then he would take a ball of the clay and form it into a pot by building it up from layers of rings which are smoothed together on a wheel.
From many old medieval illustrations, we can see potters using a wheel that they spin using a stick to give it enough speed.
