Hi Rick,
Point taken, but I understand that these were used for storage within the house rather than a storehouse. As has been mentioned by Peter Hudson above, they were also used thruout Asia and Thailand. In fact if one Googles Chinese rice storage pot, most references appear to be Thai. Mine of course has Chinese script so the assumption is that it is Chinese.
