- Lot Description
Native American, Southwestern United States, Colorado, Ancestral Puebloan, (Anasazi), ca. 930 to 1150 CE; Midwestern to Eastern United States, Eastern Woodland, Archaic period, ca. 5000 to 1000 BCE. A hand built grayware bowl made in the Mancos corrugated style and a stone axe head made by Archaic woodland cultures. The bowl has a smooth interior and a highly textured exterior, and built with a rounded, but stable base and slightly flared rim. The corrugated exterior is composed of dozens of thin rows of sculpted decoration. Vessels like this one were used primarily for cooking, storage, and serving food. The axe is hand pecked and polished with a groove encircling three quarters of the head, for hafting on to a wood pole. This type of hefty axe head indicates the beginning transition from nomadic to more permanent settlements in Native American culture. Size of axe: 7.25" L x 2.5" W (18.4 cm x 6.4 cm); vessel: 6.5" Diameter x 6" H (16.5 cm x 15.2 cm)
