it can be made up of steel, plastic, and pottery.
Water containers are as old as Man.
It depends on what the container is made of. Say it was made of tin and was a hot day, the water would become hot because the tin would heat up and the water would steal the heat energy because it is cooler.
It is generally not safe to use plastic containers for boiling water as they can release harmful chemicals when exposed to high temperatures. It is recommended to use containers made of heat-resistant materials such as glass or stainless steel for boiling water.
If it is made up of plastic or glass, yes, it is recyclable.
One gallon is made up of 4 quarts.
It is my understanding when doing research for phthalates in our water samples, that phthalates are released from plastic containers. We changed our containers from plastic to glass and voila! no more phthalates in our samples. It seems that a water bottle with no phthalates would have to be a glass bottle,

The first water clocks were made out of pottery or metal containers with calibrated markings. Water dripped or drained out from a small hole at a steady rate, allowing people to measure time based on the water level.
Big containers float in water because their density is less than the density of water. The buoyant force pushing up on the container is greater than the weight of the container pushing down, so it floats. This is based on Archimedes' principle.
The Iroquois carried water in containers made from natural materials, primarily using birch bark, which was lightweight and waterproof. They often crafted these containers into buckets or canteens, allowing them to transport water efficiently. Additionally, they might have used woven baskets for carrying smaller amounts of water or other liquids.
