Best Answer

Clay. Mud (with or without clay) is the oldest material from which bricks are made. Modern masonry bricks are commonly made with clay, though they can be made with calcium silicate, shale or other materials. Need more information on this venerable construction material? Got a link for you to the Wikipedia article on the brick.
