My clay pot broke when I turned off the gas and opened the ceiling fan. Can anyone explain why this happened?

Original clay pot cooking was done in an oven. It required the pot and lid to be soaked overnight so that the clay pot was saturated. Meat and vegetables were placed in the pot (with no additional fluids) and then baked. The wet clay creates a "sauna" that cooks the food. If you did not have enough surface seasoned (overnight is best), the heating up of the pot will be uneven. This causes different rates of expansion and contraction, which result in cracking and breaking when cooled quickly.
