Abstract
Design impressions on pottery from across the ancient world have consistent themes; lines and dots seem to be present in many cultures throughout time. These design elements could be either learned from watching others or invented by the potter. To test this idea a group of individuals was asked to create a design on a flat piece of wet clay. They were given three tools a toothpick, cloth, rolling tool. The results of this study would help shed light on how much of pottery design was from group learning or individual invention.
