Cooking pot (11)

This Clay pot "Inkono iteka" with two handles and a pot cover is a household tool made by potters by mixing coarse sand that comes from crushing stones, to the clay and then crushes, dampens and kneads the mixture. After making the pot, it is polished using an iron blade. The finished pot is dried in the sun for two to four days before being fired in a kiln. This pot was made with the purpose of using it for cooking or keeping food. From 1990s this type of pots became much more less prevalent due to the influx of Geri cans and metal cooking pots.
