a ceramic body that is characteristic for wheel-made pottery. The analysis is focused on the potential
variability within wheel-throwing method and is based on an experimental collection that combines the
factors of the experience and motor habits of individual potters and the vessel shape. The orientation of
the components of a ceramic body is calculated for two sections: radial and tangential. The sections are
analysed using optical microscopy. The calculated orientation and alignment reflect the throwing style
of potters using the same forming method.
