The flag is similar to that of Sudan and to the Kenyan flag. Both the Sudanese and Kenyan flags reflect the Pan-Arab colors which were first adopted by Syria in March 1920, and last by Sudan which officially hoisted it in 1970.
Ceramics are generally made by taking mixtures of clay, earthen elements, powders, and water and shaping them into desired forms. Once the ceramic has been shaped, it is fired in a high temperature oven known as a kiln. Often, ceramics are covered in decorative, waterproof, paint-like substances known as glazes.
It is important to note that a clay body is not the same thing as clay. Clay bodies are clay mixed with additives that give the clay different properties when worked and fired; thus pottery is not made from raw clay but a mixture of clay and other materials. The potter can form his product in one of many ways.
