Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic Pottery

The Archaic pottery was the first pottery created back in Ancient Greece. The pottery was covered in geometric pattering. Most pottery that they had created were vases and which had led to eastern influence and was mastered by the Corinth ceramicists. Athens had conquered black figure pottery, then they added an orange tinge to their pottery which led to red pottery.

The classical pottery was mostly made of ceramics which caused and unanswerable decline in pottery making. The technique they used was known as white ground. While the black and red pottery required clay slips for the pictures, the ceramic pottery allowed the artists to just paint right on the pottery.

The Hellenistic period is where pottery was starting to decline even more. There were really only three types of pottery that was very known. The first type was Megarian. 

The second style was Terracotta Sculptures.  

Lastly, there was West-Slope pottery.
