This is a fantastic authentic original circa 800-1100 A.D. Anasazi corrugated pottery cooking pot / olla with incredibly rare applied decorative coil. The piece was recovered from bean fields leased by Robert Blackburn and family near Durango, Colorado, brother of one of the more noteworthy Ancestral Puebloans Pottery experts of the mid-20th Century. The piece was recovered as shards and put together in museum preservation fashion. The prehistoric pottery olla has a traditional wide-mouthed Mesa Verde pot with corrugated body having a nice medium to medium large size. The inside shows indications and remnants of last meal and is missing a major piece on one side, both documented features of early authentic Anasazi pottery cooking pots. Provenance: The piece was recovered in bean fields leased by Robert Blackburn near Durango, Colorado, from the ex-collection of Robert Blackburn and family. Anasazi corrugated cooking pots with an original applied decorative coil are immensely rare with an example at Allard’s Auction in August 2010 which sold for $4,000. The shards are held together with strong water soluble glue which does not harm the pottery shards and can be washed away. Measures overall 8.5”H by 8.25”W. The piece is fragile due to being put together as shards.
