potter's wheel

The potters wheel must have been one of the very earliest inventions of semi-civilized races.

The Bronze Age yields up pottery which does not yet show the invention of the potters wheel.

This may be done either by moulding or by throwing upon the potters wheel.

The use of the potters wheel was all but universal, and the wares were burned hard.

Not till Celtic times in Europe is there evidence of the use of the potters wheel.
