Gila Polychrome bowl, Earl Morris collection, University of Colorado Museum
Earl Morris collection, UCM Boulder. Gila Polychrome vessel from a ruin near Solomonville, AZ, excavated by a University of Colorado expedition in 1931. UCM#4707.
I came across this photo yesterday in my old favorites file, which is worth reviewing from time to time for overlooked gems. Here's one.
Museum photo, cropped and levels adjusted by me. License per museum website, www.colorado.edu/cumuseum/research-collections/anthropolo...
The bowl itself is from the 15th century or perhaps somewhat earlier. Hard to believe it was in the ground for 500 years or more! Found in east central Arizona in the Gila Valley, Graham County.
