IT IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT IS KNOWN AS \"SIMMS ENGRAVED\" CHARACTERIZED BY COMPRESSED DESIGNS WITHIN THE NARROW RIM ZONE. THE DESIGNS ON THIS VESSEL ALSO CONTAIN TRACES OF RED OCHRE. IT MEASURES 8 1/4\" IN DIAMETER AND IT STANDS 4 3/4\" TALL. IT WAS FOUND IN TWO LARGE PIECES AND WAS GLUED BACK TOGETHER; THERE IS NO RESTORATION. IT IS A NICE EXAMPLE DATING IN THE 1500 TO 1700 A.D.
