Question

the remains of pottery of megalithic people indicated their pottery skills. Explain.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The size and shape of the pottery showed the skill and the technological advancement in the Megalithic period.The megalithic pottery could be broadly divided into two groups — unpolished, large, receptacles of funerary deposits, the burial urns, and well-fired highly polished small pottery. The old black-finished pottery was wheel-turned. The clay was finally ‘litigated,' making it a smooth and plastic paste, though it was not uniform in texture. The polish or glaze exhibited a capacity to withstand a fairly high temperature and a black colouring clay was applied, acting as a flux at high temperatures.
