Piggy Banks: Promotional Folklore Made Fun Did you know that no one invented piggy banks? Its unique origin stems from the history of the English language, rather than from a particular product or inventor. During the 15th century, in Old English, there was a word-"pygg.” This word indicated a specific type of orange colored clay. This material was very useful, and individuals used it for many things, including dishes and jars that sometimes held spare change. During the 1700s, as the language was changing, the word "pygg" became a homonym for the “pig," referring to the animal. While the two words sounded the same, they meant very different things. Interestingly, one potter had the idea to mold a "pygg" jar, to look just like the animal. Today, historians still don’t know whether or not this occurred on purpose or whether the maker misunderstood the directions. In any case the piggy bank has survived as a piece of American folk art still treasured today and used by children and adults alike.
