“The weapons and other implements of imperishable stone and flint have, long ages ago, died out, and any possible connection between them and the weapons or tools of our own day has died with them ; but the vessels of simple clay have an abiding- place with us which has lasted without a break until now, and will yet last for ever….{and} thus in pottery, as in nothing else, an unbroken chain {exists}, connecting us to our remote barbarian forefathers.”
Llewellyn Jewitt; "The Ceramic Art of Great Britain (1878)
