The female potter Kambanpi climbs the hill of Aibom and digs some clay. Back to the village she mixes two different kinds of clay together with water. She makes two vessels. An already dried hearth is decorated and to another vessel decoration is added. The pots are placed on a frame of palm leaves and covered with more dried leaves. After the fire the rather hot pots are sealed with starchy sago water.
