Puddles formed on loess soil are known to fissure up on drying [1]. The irregular, dish-like, concave pieces thus formed may reach a 100cm 2 area and are from l m m to l c m thick (Fig. 1 a). They are formed by sedimentation; their upper fine layer contracts more quickly than the rest and the pieces break away from the soil beneath. I took some such fragile, soft crumbs and burned them under small bonfires, about 1/2 m high and 70 cm 96 which were fed wood for about 4 hours. We obtained hard, dish-like crumbs which could be broken by hand only with difficulty. These crumbs have a Mohr hardness between 3 and 5, a waterabsorbing capacity between 8 and 25%, and a modulus of rupture between 30 and 60 kg/cm 2. Modern data on burned fire clay range from 50 to 220 kg/cm 2. I propose that dish-like pieces burned accidentally in bonfires may have given to prehistoric man the idea that ceramic dishes can be made by moulding certain clays by hand and burning
