- Lot Description
Native American, Southwestern USA, Southwestern New Mexico, Southeast Arizona, and Northern Chihuahua region of Mexico, Mimbres-Mogollon (Anasazi / Ancestral Puebloan), ca. 1000 to 1250 CE. A lovely, hand-built pottery jar presenting a bulbous body that tapers to a narrow neck and gently flared rim, all sitting upon a round yet stable base and enveloped in a light gray slip. A thick, ribbon-form handle connects neck to hip. The exterior of this ancient jar is densely decorated with the Reserve Indented Corrugated style; a modification of the coil and scrape method that requires immense skill. Each coil of pottery was carefully indented with the potter's finger at remarkably regular, tight intervals - a step that contributed to the integrity of the form as well. The rounded base suggests that this vessel was made to be set in a sandy floor. Size: 5.7" Diameter x 5.4" H (14.5 cm x 13.7 cm)
As pottery vessels like this example were traditionally made by women, Mogollon women have been found in burials accompanied by pottery making tools. Ceramic jars similar to this one have also been found in the Starkweather Ruin in New Mexico.
Provenance: private southwestern Pennsylvania, USA collection, acquired prior to 2000; ex-Len Weidner collection, acquired in 1987; ex-private Maricopa County, Arizona, USA collection

#159949Repaired from several pieces with restoration over most break lines, though 1 old repair visible with 2 perforations from being strung together. A few stable hairline fissures to areas.
