The handicraft of the clay still is going on alive in the popular neighborhood of the potters of Sorbas, at the foot of this village on some precipices that peak fall over the river Aguas.The land, irrigated by the modest bed, feeds the industry of the local ceramics that includes arabic wood ovens. In the are around Sorbas, the river Aguas is hidden in a underground gallery of caves and abyss lined by crystals of gypsum.
This is a sign of that gallery, with gypsum and water.
