Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Northern Mexico, Chihuahua, Carretas, Casas Grandes, ca. 1060 to 1340 CE. A charming pottery vessel in the form of an owl with a rounded base, a bulbous body, and a large head that opens at the verso to the hollow interior. Adorned in hues of black and burnt sienna atop light orange, the adorable avian gazes forth from huge, bulging eyes that flank a petite open beak, all surrounded by a sweeping arched brow. A pair of horns rise from the bird's head as its body is adorned by an intricately painted geometric motif. Size: 7" Diameter x 8.8" H (17.8 cm x 22.4 cm)

Casas Grandes (Spanish for "Great Houses;" also known as Paquime) is a prehistoric archaeological site in the northern Mexican state of Chihuahua. Casas Grandes is one of the largest and most complex Mogollon culture sites in the region. Settlement began after 1130 CE and would see the larger buildings developed into multi-storied dwellings after 1350 CE. The community was abandoned approximately 1450 CE. Casas Grandes is regarded as one of the most significant Mogollon archaeological zones in the northwestern Mexico region, linking it to other sites in Arizona and New Mexico in the United States, and exhibiting the expanse of the Mogollon sphere of influence.
