Why do most Early Bronze Age Cypriot bowls jugs flasks etc have a rounded rather than a flat bottom?

PS I know that many other pots from the period (and earlier) also have rounded bottoms but I happen to have become fascinated with Bronze Age Cypriot pottery which is particularly exuberant and sculptural.

What are the uses of a flask?
The round bottoms on these types of flasks allow more uniform heating and/or boiling of liquid. Thus, round-bottom flasks are used in a variety of applications where the contents are heated or boiled. Round-bottom flasks are usually used in distillation by chemists as distilling flasks and receiving flasks for the distillate One-neck round-bottom flasks are used as the distilling flasks in rotary evaporators.This flask shape is also more resistant to fracturing under vacuum, as a sphere more evenly distributes stress across its surface.
What are round bottom flasks?
Round-bottom flasks are used to contain chemical reactions run by chemists, especially for reflux set-ups and laboratory-scale synthesis.
What is the function of round bottom flask?
A round bottom flask is called a boiling flask. I tolerates the stresses of heating better than flat bottom or Erlenmeyer flasks.
Why is a round bottomed flask used in fractional distillation rather than a flat bottomed flask?
Flat bottom flasks (Erlenmeyer and Florence flasks) are used for heating all the time.

What are round bottom flasks used for?
ROUND BOTTOM FLASKS are mostly used for chemical or biochemicalwork. Hope this helped!
What is the meaning of conical flasks?
There is no meaning of conical flasks. They have uses.
What is a lab flask for?
there are many types of flasks present in chemistry lab. some can be accurate for volume measurment others for some different functions as storage for example flasks commonly present is " volumetric flask- erlenmeyer flask - florence flask " the volumetric is accurate method for volume measurement erlenmeyer or conical florence or rounded has the same functions "storage ,, stirring ,,heating ,,mixing " the only difference is the rounded one is less stable as the base is smaller
What is the use of flat bottom flask in a chemistry?
They have the same uses as other flasks. However, the flat bottom means they can be placed on flat surfaces such as the laboratory bench, or in a fridge or incubator/oven and also can be stirred more easily on a hotplate.
