[INDOLOGY] Pot making in ancient India

[Jan E.M. Houben]

Dear François,
You are no doubt aware of Wilhelm Rau's Töpferei und Tongeschirr im
vedischen Indien (1972; probably now in Rau's Kleine Schriften).
In addition there is the Habilitations thesis by Rau's student Prof. Konrad
Klaus of which I don't know whether it has by now appeared as book ... I
hope so.
Jan
