These consist of vessels of pottery, a few clay images, and two or
three clay pipes. The pottery (with the exception of one or two pieces
obtained from other pueblos) is all black ware, some of which is quite
well polished. Some of the ollas are quite large, the form shown in fig.
699 (46993), predominating; others with rather high neck which is marked
with sharp, oblique ridges, as shown in fig. 700 (47023).

_POLISHED BLACK WARE._
428, (46993). Olla shown in fig. 699. The somewhat peculiar form of the
body, the sharp curve at the shoulder and straight line in the lower
half, is the point to which attention is more particularly called, as
this appears to be the principal type form of these vessels, with this
pueblo.
429, (46994). A jar-shaped olla.
430-433. 430, (46995); 431, (47023); Fig. 700. 432, (47024); 433,
(47147). These are well shown in fig. 700. The oblique lines on the
neck indicate sharp external ridges. The lip is also usually undulate
or crenate. The size is from medium to large, varying in capacity from
one to three or four gallons.
434, (46996). A large pitcher, lower part of the body much inflated,
neck rather narrow and encircled by a sharp undulate ridge, handle
and spout of the usual form; capacity about two gallons. Coarse brown
micaceous ware blackened by fire.

450, (47085). A flaring, flat-bottomed, bowl or dish, similar to number
(47019) except that the inner ornamental depressions are spirally

indentation.

spiral ridges and undulated margin shown in fig. 701.

_BLACK OR BROWN WARE._
(Blackened by use on the fire; not polished.)
This ware, when first made and before use, varies in shade from dark
earth color to reddish-brown, but the soot, smoke, and fire, when in
use, soon darken it; hence it is usually described as black ware. The
articles are used for cooking purposes, such as pots--which are usually
pot-shaped--some without handles and some with a handle on one side,
bowls, &c. The pots vary in capacity from a pint to a little over a
gallon.
