Item Details
Description
Native American, Southwestern United States, found in eastern Arizona, Anasazi (Ancestral Puebloan), ca. 1150 to 1250 CE. A hand-built pottery pitcher jar made in the style known as Puerco black-on-white, its surface painted with an ivory white slip and linear patterns in black. Pitchers such as this may have prepared hot beverages, and interestingly, researchers have gathered evidence of cocoa from Chaco pottery, indicating trade between Mesoamerican cultures and their neighbors to the north! Size: 6" Diameter x 6.5" H (15.2 cm x 16.5 cm)
