KGT 97:  The general term for a pot is {'un}. Pots that may be put on top of a fire in order to heat their contents are made of metal ({baS}); others may be made of either metal or ceramic material ({nagh} [literally, "stone"]). A {bargh} is probably the most frequently used pot. It is rather large and has a flattened bottom.

KGT 27-28:  In some regions, a {bargh} made of metal is a {mIv} (which also means "helmet", even though, historically speaking, helmets are not necessarily made of metal), or a {mIv bargh} ("helmet pot")
