Why are clay minerals used in pottery making or the characteristics that made them use in it I will Will make u brainiest

Answer 1

Clay is used in pottery for its ability to be manipulated by the bare hands of humans, and it dries very quickly. Since you dont need a lot of equipment, it was a high paying job back in the old times. An advantage of clay that it can keep the water cool for a long time  as long as you cover the container.

Another advantage is that clay doesnt react with the liquids or food inside when heat is applied ( Unlike plastic)
