Twante is a small village across the river from Yangon, Myanmar’s largest city. They have been making pottery there in the same way for 600 years. (Sorry about the image quality. The first is a frame-grab from a video, and both were taken inside the pottery, a thatched hut with no internal light sources.) The young woman is spinning the wheel by hand while the old man shapes the pot. The kiln is wood-fired, though a mix with bamboo is used to increase the kiln temperature.

The stories of the Hag of Beara are fascinating insights into Irish history and culture, first appearing in written form in about the 11th century. Wikipedia will tell you this rock chair, in reality a natural boulder, in Kilcatherine, Béara, County Cork, is said to be either her fossilised remains, or the chair on which she sits waiting for Manannán mac Lir, the god of the sea, variously described as her husband or father. Placing a coin on the rock reputedly brings good fortune.
