In the Nilgiri mountains of southern India, only women of the Kota tribe have been engaged in the craft of pottery.From the ceremonial extraction of the clay at grounds close to the settlements to the moulding and shaping, planning and firing, it has been women at the wheel.In the past, women made pots not only for religious purposes but also for daily eating, cooking, storage of water and grains, for clay oil lamps and pipes. Before stainless steel and plastic came up from the plains, the only pots used in these hills were clay ones made by the Kota Tribes. These artifacts are real eye catcher and solely made by a Kota Tribe of Tamilnadu.
