Clay is one of the many types of Template:L that can be found in Dwarf Fortress. Template:Ls are never present in clay layers.

Clay can be gathered for use in Template:L.

The gathering and use of clay is done from a Template:L and behaves similar to most material production, but includes elements similar to Template:L production. In order to gather clay a gathering zone must first be designated, much like with Template:L, however unlike sand gathering clay creates a Clay object similar to raw stone and does not require a bag. These clay objects are stored in a Stone stockpile, and may be used to construct walls (structures made from clay could be thought of as adobe buildings). As with sand, clay can be gathered indefinitely from a single tile.

Clay can be made into pots, Template:L, Template:Ls, Template:Ls and Template:Ls. Small pots, called jugs, function similar to bags and waterskins, while large pots are treated like barrels. Creating any object from clay requires a unit of fuel.

Before an Template:L pot (large or small) can hold liquids, it must be glazed. Glazing is performed at a Template:L and requires either a unit of Template:L or a unit of Template:L (Template:L ore), plus a unit of fuel. Template:L and Template:L pots do not need to be glazed.
