TYPE: Dogozshi Black-on-White

DATE: A.D. 1040 to 1220 (Hays-Gilpin & Hartesveldt, 1998;118)

BOWL DESIGN PLACEMENT: Primary interior designs, occasionally secondary exterior designs.

COMMON DESIGNS: Designs are like Gallup Black-on-White in the Cibola Whiteware Section of this guide. Although most of the designs seem the same, Dogoszhi seems to favor curvilinear designs more often than Gallup.

KEY DIFFERENCES: Hatched designs. All Tusayan Whiteware types have a vegetal paint (vegetal paint often looks soft or watery so the edges are not as sharp as mineral paint) and are supposed to have light paste.  All Little Colorado Whiteware types have vegetal paint and are supposed to have a dark paste.  Mesa Verde Whiteware types may have mineral or vegetal paint.  See article titled General Pottery Descriptions.
