Featured in this lot is this original circa 800-1100 A.D. Anasazi corrugated pottery cooking pot / olla with incredibly rare applied decorative coil. The piece was recovered as shards and put together in 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. 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. The condition of this Anasazi pot is repaired with shards missing from the puzzle of the piece but otherwise is preserved as is and extremely fragile with two shard pieces shown separate from the piece. The measurements of this pottery is 9 3/4" x 10 1/4" x 10 1/4". The collective weight of this piece is 3lb 14oz.
