The neolithic was the period between 10,000 BC and around 4500 BC. In terms of human societies, in this period there were multiple advances, one of the most important was the development of pottery techniques in human groups all around the world. Indeed, during this period clay and similar materials were used to create figures of animals, people, and other elements but also to create pots, cooking utensils, and daily life objects. This was possible due to humans firing clay after modeling it because this made clay a resistant impermeable material that was necessary for vessels or cooking utensils. Thus, it is true by firing clay Neolithic people were able to create watertight vessels.
