Clay baked in pits with fire fueled by dry cow dung to harden them.
The Shona people of Zimbabwe are a diverse ethnic group with a rich history and fascinating culture. A majority tribe in this Southern African country, they make up 80% of its population though they can be found in Botswana, Mozambique, Zambia, and South Africa. These traditional “Hari” clay pots are used for cooking food over a fire, storing liquids, and holding sacred items. (Early 20th Century)
