The article on the basis of long experiments, ethnographic and archaeological data discusses the hypothesis about the origin of forms of earthenware based on the techniques of primitive cooking. Experiments show that as a result of the preparation of meat food in the center, coated with clay of a special composition, it is possible to obtain a fully preserved clay container, which could be a prototype of the fi rst forms of vessels. This assumption is indirectly confi rmed by the results of a special study of the oldest ceramics of the monuments of the Amur Region. The article suggests that the fi rst clay vessels were used to cook hot food on fi re for ritual purposes.
