When you fire something made of clay in a kiln you are more or less quickly creating an artificial rock. It is similar to a igneous or metamorphic rock.
Typically stoneware pottery fires to somewhere between 2200 and 2500 degrees F. Lava is usually about 1,292 to 2,192 °F.
When clay is heated to this temperature it changes permanently. Even if it was ground to a powered and water was added it would not be clay again it would be a wet paste. As it heats, different minerals melt. As it cools new crystals such as mullite are formed. It is much more like a rock.
The only difference is that, except for rocks made in a volcano, most rocks are created at both high temperature, high pressure and over a great deal of time. That long cooling time and high pressure makes for different structures.

How do you cool water using clay?
To cool water using clay, you can place a clay pot with water inside a larger clay pot. Wet the outer pot with water and place in a well-ventilated area. As the water in the outer pot evaporates, it will draw heat from the inner pot, thus cooling the water inside. This method utilizes the principle of evaporative cooling to lower the temperature of the water.
