Studies have shown that man existed for about two million years, while documentation via writing began about 5,000 years ago, that is about 3000 BC, yet it did not commence simultaneously in all parts of the world. The invention of writing made some Western scholars to assert that history began with writing. Such perception made some scholars to classify the activities of unlettered societies as pre-history. The classification notwithstanding, historians and archaeologists have employed professional methods to reconstruct activities of the human past before the proto-history. It is in this connection that the research has undertaken to study a pre-history of the Bisu people in Obanliku Local Government Area of Cross River State, Nigeria, through their Pottery Production. The study reveals that pottery production was one of the vehicles for the socio-economic and political activities of the Bisu. That through pottery, some socio-economic and political aspects of a history of the people can be identified and reconstructed. The research used oral interview, written records and archaeological interpretations to arrive at the result. The research maintained that apart from the Bisu pottery, other cultural materials of the past could also be used to reconstruct other aspects of global prehistory. The study concluded that history began concurrently with the origin of man long before modern writing, therefore, studies in early histories of late writers like the Bisu should be encouraged.
