History

Jomon period

In the Neolithic period ( millenniumBC), the earliest soft earthenware was made.

During the early Jomon period in the 6th millenniumBC typical coil-made ware appeared, decorated with hand-impressed rope patterns. Jomon pottery developed a flamboyant style at its height and was simplified in the later Jomon period.
