About
A cooking pot is a deep vessel designed to hold and heat several quarts of food on a stove.
Cookware comes in a wide range of sizes, from small one-quart saucepans to massive stockpots holding twenty quarts or more. A standard home pot is sized to cover a single stove burner while leaving room for neighboring cookware. The material also changes how heavy it feels, as a cast-iron pot of the same dimensions weighs significantly more than an aluminum one.
From Wikipedia
A cooking pot is a large bowl that is heated in order to cook the food inside it. They can be made from either ceramics or metals, and have been used nearly everywhere in the world throughout human history.
