According to Mason, Robert B. (2014) There is a long history of ceramic art in almost all
developed cultures, and often ceramic objects are all the artistic evidence left from vanished
cultures, like that of the Nok in Africa over 2,000 years ago. Cultures especially noted for
ceramics include the Chinese, Cretan, Greek, Persian, Mayan, Japanese, and Korean cultures, as
well as the modern Western cultures.
(Kashim, 2014),Although pottery figurines are found from earlier periods in Europe, the oldest
pottery vessels come from East Asia, with finds in China and Japan, then still linked by a land
bridge, and some in what is now the Russian Far East, providing several from 20,000–
10,000 BCE, although the vessels were simple utilitarian objects. Xianrendong Cave in Jiangxi
province contained pottery fragments that date back to 20,000 years ago. | en_US |
