The Acacia Collection of African Americana Colonoware Pottery Colonoware was used to prepare, serve, and store food, and provides tangible evidence of the mixing of African, European, and Native American cultures on plantations in South Carolina and Virginia from 1700-1820. The low-fired pottery provided the slow cooking necessary for typically southern dishes such as hominy or okra (originally African American).
