What does this Greek vessel (pottery) teach us about the beliefs of the ancient Greeks? Answer In a Paragraph

Answer:

The pottery of ancient Greece from c. 1000 to c. 400 BCE provides not only some of the most distinctive vase shapes from antiquity but also some of the oldest and most diverse representations of the cultural beliefs and practices of the ancient Greeks. Further, pottery, with its durability (even when broken) and lack of appeal to treasure hunters, is one of the great archaeological survivors and is, therefore, an important tool for archaeologists and historians in determining the chronology of ancient Greece. Whatever their artistic and historical value though, the vast majority of Greek vases, despite now being dusty museum pieces, were actually meant for everyday use and, to paraphrase Arthur Lane, it is perhaps worth remembering that standing on a stone pavement and drenched with water, they would have once gleamed in the Mediterranean sun.         The clay (keramos) to produce pottery (kerameikos) was readily available throughout Greece, although the finest was Attic clay, with its high iron content giving an orange-red colour with a slight sheen when fired and the pale buff of Corinth. Clay was generally prepared and refined in settling tanks so that different consistencies of material could be achieved depending on the vessel types to be made with it.

Greek pottery was invariably made on the potter’s wheel and usually made in separate horizontal sections: the foot, the lower and upper body, the neck, and finally the handles, if necessary. These sections were then joined together with a clay ‘slip’ after drying and it is possible in many cases to see the prints of the potter impressed on the inside of the vessel. The piece was then put back on the wheel to smooth the join marks and add the final shaping. Therefore, all vases were unique and the small variations in dimensions reveal that the use of simple tools and not cut-out templates was the norm.

Next, the pot was decorated. This process depended on the decorative style in vogue at the time, but popular methods included painting the whole or parts of the vase with a thin black adhesive paint which was added with a brush, the marks of which remain visible in many cases. This black paint was a mix of alkali potash or soda, clay with silicon content, and black ferrous oxide of iron. The paint was affixed to the pot by using a fixative of urine or vinegar which burned away in the heat of the kiln, binding the paint to the clay. Another technique, used more rarely, was to cover the vessel with a white clay paint. Alternatively, only lines or figures were added in black using a thicker version of the black paint mentioned above and applied with a stiff brush or feather; in consequence, a slight relief effect was achieved. Minor details were often added with a thinned black paint giving a yellow-brown colour, a white pipe-clay, and a dark red of ochre and manganese. The latter two colours tended to flake off over time.

The first large-scale argument over slavery erupted in 1819 when Missouri petitioned for admittance into the Union. Many of the settlers in Missouri were slave owners who had migrated from the South with their slaves. These people wanted slavery to be an accepted part of the new state constitution. Other residents of the territory did not want slavery approved. More significantly, however, the politicians of the North and the South feared the admission of the new state because it would upset the balance of power in the Senate. Until this point, the struggle for power in the Senate had been tempered by the orderly admission of free and slave states to the Union. Earlier in 1819, the Union had been comprised of eleven free states and eleven slave states. Before Missouri petitioned for admittance into the Union, Alabama had been admitted as a slave state. If Missouri was admitted as another slave state, the balance of power would be lost.

The controversy over Missouri gained momentum when Representative James Tallmadge of New York proposed that "the further introduction of slavery" into the new state be forbidden and that the children of slaves presently living in the state be free when they reach twenty-five years of age. Because membership in the House of Representatives is based on population, and the North was the most populated region, the Tallmadge Amendment was passed and sent to the Senate. The amendment was finally defeated in the Senate after a long and forceful debate. The passage of the Tallmadge Amendment in the House crystallized in the minds of Southern senators the necessity of preserving the balance of power in the Senate. If the South could preserve this balance, it could block legislation passed by the Northern-dominated House that would in any way be detrimental to the welfare of the Southern states.

The impasse was resolved when Maine separated from Massachusetts and applied for statehood. A compromise, supported by Henry Clay, was proposed and accepted by both sides. This compromise, known as the Missouri Compromise, provided for the admittance of Missouri as a slave state and the admittance of Maine as a free state, thereby preserving the balance of power. In addition, the North was able to hold its position that Congress should determine the expansion of slavery into the territories by including a provision that forbade slavery forever in the Louisiana Purchase north of the 36°30' parallel.
