During the Terminal Pleistocene, hunter-gatherers began using ceramic cooking containers in three separate geographic regions of East Asia: China, Japan and along the Amur River in the Russian Far East. However, very little has been known about what led to the emergence of pottery in these areas. Very recently, organic residue analysis of prehistoric pottery using mass spectrometry started shedding new light on this question, providing the insight into what kind of food were processed in these early pottery.
