- Lot Description
North America, Southwest, Central eastern Arizona, Anasazi / Ancestral Puebloan, Greater Mogollon, Greater Salado, Upper Gila (Highland Salado), Tonto Polychrome, ca. 1350 to 1450 CE. A Tonto pottery jar of impressive size exhibiting corrugations across the neck and upper shoulder exterior surface that made it easy to carry, even when wet. The broad shoulder is painted with polychrome white and black over the red-orange ground. Size: 13" Diameter x 10" H (33 cm x 25.4 cm)
Tonto Polychrome is a pottery type within the larger category referred to as Roosevelt Red Ware (or, more informally, "Salado Polychromes"). These pottery types first appeared in the mountains of central Arizona during the late 1200s, associated with clues suggesting that they were developed by immigrants from the Kayenta region of far northeastern Arizona. By the mid- to late 1300s, Tonto Polychrome and other Roosevelt Red Ware types were being produced in nearly every ancient community in the southern US Southwest, replacing local painted pottery traditions such as the red-on-buff and red-on-brown types associated with Hohokam groups. The available evidence suggests that the manufacture of Roosevelt Red Ware remained closely tied to northern immigrants and their descendants, who formed a diasporic community of dispersed but linked enclaves throughout central and southern Arizona, southwestern New Mexico, and northern Sonora and Chihuahua.
