In Africa most pots have pretty standard or shall I say similar aspect ratios. A stewing pot tends to be taller but it is rare to find a H/W (height/width) greater than one outside a restaurant (where the save space on a crowded cooking surface).
For the ones you have, do you find a consistent ratio? Regards Crispin Crispin and all, You mentioned pot sizes. There are stock pots, sauce pots and brazier pots. Does you pot fit in one of these categories? >From photos it looks like most pots used in developing areas are in the "sauce pot" category but many also use stock pots for the larger 60 liter and 100 liter size. Links to Winco pot sizes. Different brands are different sizes but are close to the same size.
