Approximate Dimensions: 2 7/8" by 2 3/4"

 

2Y Anasazi/Mogollon Cibola Narrow Indented Corrugated Jar with a non-indented plain corrugated bottom. This does not qualify as the zoned variety because when the vessel rests on a surface the different corrugation is not in view. This treatment is commonly seen on Mogollon Corrugated types.

The coils on this jar average 2mm wide.

4Y Cibola Narrow Corrugated Pitcher, Festoon corrugated variety.

The potter that made this pitcher alligned the indentations so that they formed long ridges that "spiral" from top to bottom. Go to vessel #8Y in the Mogollon Reserve Corrugated Section to see a spiral-rub variety.

Approximate Dimensions:  5" by 4 3/4"
