Since the Paleolithic period, humans have maintained a constant relationship with clay, this humble material that not only allows us to shape figurines and containers, but also, thanks to fire, to harden them. Throughout human history, ceramics have played many roles: as a symbol of prestige and wealth, a major cultural marker, or simply as an object of desire and commercial transactions.
