They didn't have metals pots but they did have skin pots. The Indians used animal skin, they shaped into a pot, poured water in it and hung it beside their fire. Theythen heated the water by taking rocks from the fire and putting them in the pot. When the rocks got cool they would remove them and put more in. They kept doing this until the water boiled. In addition, they had pottery pots, which could withstand high heat, as well as birch bark containers, which were used like the skins.
