  desc: During the Naqada I period (ca 4000– 3550 BC) red pottery with a black edge dominated. It is believed that the black colour was due to the vessels being fired upside-down inside the kiln. The ashes in the bottom of the kiln would have prevented the upper part of the vessel to get into contact with oxygen, resulting in the black colour. Alternatively the black edge could have been achieved by dipping the upper part of the vessel in smouldering ashes after firing. The vessels were smoothed by a polishing stone. Another early type was red pottery with painted decoration in white or light beige. The motifs were often simple zigzag lines but also images of animals occur. By this time agriculture had firmly established itself. The contacts between the previously small and independent villages increased and in some places sizeable towns started to develop. Larger political units emerged. In the forefront of the development was the area around Naqada in Upper Egypt, where the narrow Nile Valley was easier to unite than the wide and shattered Delta in the north.

  desc: Under tidsperioden Naqada I (ca 4000– 3550 f Kr) dominerade den röda keramiken med svart kant. Man tror att den svarta färgen kom av att kärlen brändes upp och ned i brännugnen. Askan i botten av ugnen förhindrade då att den övre delen av kärlet kom i kontakt med syre, vilket resulterade i den svarta färgen. Alternativt kan den svarta kanten ha åstadkommits genom att doppa övre delen av kärlet i glödande aska efter bränningen. Kärlen polerades blanka med en polersten. En annan tidig sort var röd keramik med målad dekor i vitt eller ljust beige. Motiven var ofta enkla sicksack-linjer, men även bilder på djur förekommer. Vid den här tiden har jordbruket tagit fart på allvar. Kontakterna mellan tidigare små och självförsörjande byar ökar och på några platser uppkommer regelrätta städer. Större politiska enheter växer fram. I spetsen för utvecklingen går området kring Naqada i Övre Egypten. Den smala Nildalen var lättare att ena än det vida och splittrade Deltat i norr.
