Peasants and Potters is a book written by Harold Peake that explores the relationship between peasant society and pottery production in ancient times. The book delves into the history of pottery-making, from its earliest origins to its development as a vibrant industry that sustained many rural communities. The author examines the various techniques and materials used by potters, as well as the social and economic factors that influenced the production and distribution of pottery. Peasants and Potters also provides insight into the daily lives of peasants who worked in the pottery industry, highlighting the challenges and rewards of their work.
