Archaeologists have been able to find porcelain vessels, believed to have been used in the manufacture of "beer" alcohol in areas of China dating back to 7-9 thousand years.

According to the publication of the channel "Russia Today," researchers discovered on my hands the effects of starch, fungi and plant tissues, the components of brewing drinks.

It is believed that the ancient man had two ways of brewing, the first by allowing the seeds to germinate, leading to the transformation of a large part of the starch into sugar, or the preparation of yeast for the fermentation of materials used in the manufacture of alcohol.

In the fermentation process, people used small-necked ceramic vessels, which facilitated anaerobic enzymatic processes, the researchers note. The manufacture of alcohol may have stimulated the development of agriculture, because people used to plant the same plants used to make beer.

However, the two methods did not permit a drink with high alcohol content.
