(According to the information here, the earliest ceramics in Canada
were made in the northern Yukon more than 3,500 years ago, and were
made by Inuit potters. Pottery found in more southerly areas of Canada
were developed in a separate tradition from the Siberian-inspired ware
of the northern people.) (Take the tour and click on the map links to
view pots.)
