DescriptionCeramic pottery, which is identified as Salado Red pottery in the archaeologist field checklist. It has a very unique shape, in that it looks like a long boot. Its exterior is orange, and the interior is black with shades of grey. There are small cracks in the pottery's interior, but they are not visible on the outside. The archaeologist checklist says the bowl was used from 900-1300 AD. There is no accompanying donor file or NAGPRA report information, so the bowl's culture is unknown.
