- PREHISTORIC ANASAZI CHACO POTTERY DUCK
PREHISTORIC ANASAZI CHACO POTTERY DUCK EFFIGY PITCHERNative American, Southwestern United States, Ancestral Puebloan (Anasazi), Chaco, ca. 950 to 1200 CE. This is a remarkable effigy pitcher that is hand-built to resemble a bird. The elongated body rests on a rounded but stable base, and a rounded tail end projects upward from the body - reminiscent of a duck. An opening in the neck leads into the hollow interior and a ribbed handle connects the rim to the midsection, and two rounded protuberances flank the rim on either side of the handle. These knobs might have functioned as lugs for securing a lid or covering. The exterior is slipped in a white-gray pigment then decorated with linear motifs of triangles, wavy lines, and solid banding - that represent the folded wings and plumage of the bird. The piece is made using the coil and scrape method, to smooth the walls and then painted before firing. Size: 6" L x 4" W x 4.25" H (15.2 cm x 10.2 cm x 10.8 cm)
Provenance: private New Jersey, USA collection, purchased in 2001; ex-Cheryl S. Johnson and Fred Morrill collection

- RARE ANASAZI MESA VERDE POTTERY DUCK
RARE ANASAZI MESA VERDE POTTERY DUCK SLIPPER VESSELNative American, North America, Southwestern United States, Colorado or New Mexico, Ancestral Puebloan (Anasazi), Mesa Verde type, ca. 1050 to 1200 CE. A fine and rare example of a pottery slipper-form vessel that is hand-built via the traditional coil-and-scrape technique. The vessel also resembles the form of a duck - of ovoid form with a round but stable base - with a pinched 'tail' behind a protruding pair of nubbin wings and a raised cylindrical neck sans head. Illustrated on the topside is a highly abstract figure bearing geometric and linear motifs across its body, perhaps a representation of a celestial deity or an abstract duck-man figure. Beneath a pair of X forms on the neck is a pair of abstract figures - one resembling a petite duck and the other an inverted human with a serrated body, perhaps deceased - and in between the 2 figures is a centipede-type figure with a large, discoid head. Size: 4.625" L x 2.8" W x 2.875" H (11.7 cm x 7.1 cm x 7.3 cm)
Pottery of this kind is some of the most important found in the ancient Southwest. The Chaco Project, the major excavations of Chaco Canyon (today a National Historical Park that is well worth a visit), recovered more of this pottery than any other style. Chaco was the center of the ancestral Puebloan (Anasazi) culture, a vast city of monumental architecture, including massive stone Great Houses of multiple stories and kivas of all sizes. Roads from Chaco Canyon radiated to outlying settlements for hundreds of miles, and it seems to have been a religious, social, and trade hub for a vast region. Today many Native peoples in the Southwest connect their own histories to Chaco, seeing it as a stop along their sacred migrations.
