PRE-COLUMBIAN CHANCAY POTTERY OLLA POTDESCRIPTION: Pre-Columbian Peruvian Chancay Pottery Olla Pot from central coast of Peru, Chancay culture. Small attractive rounded base olla with two handles in natural beige color and with four brown vertical stripes decorating the body.
The Chancay were a pre-Hispanic archeological civilization that developed between the valleys of Fortaleza, Pativilca, Supe, Huaura, Chancay, Chillón, Rimac and Lurín, on the central coast of Peru. Ceramics were a very common feature of the Chancay culture. This pottery has been found mainly in the cemeteries of the Ancon and Chancay valley. The Chancay civilization produced ceramics on a large scale using moulds. However, open vessels with more than 400 different types of drawings that have yet to be decrypted, uniquely created by artisans, have been found. The technique used in creating ceramics was with a rough matt surface that was later painted with a dark colour, usually black or brown, on top of a lighter cream or white background. this dark on light characteristic is known as black on white.
