- Item: PT116 *NEW*
- Description: Clay Pottery Disk - Some believe
these to be unfinished Clay Gorgets. The Caddo peoples DID make
and engrave clay gorgets and most were then drilled for suspension.
As this one appears to have Ochre staining, they may also have been
shallow paint pallets. Others suggest Water bottle caps, but I do
not think that the "cupped" design would have been necessary for this.

It has been cracked and glued and has a small ding to the rim. It has red pigment inside and out! I bought this piece out of an Arkansas collection, but I have no exact provenance on it. I have had Sam Johnson, Jeff Baker, AND Ken Partain look at it and the general consensus is that it is a Southwest Paint Pot..... most likely early Hohokum, which would place the period at around 1200 A.D. A very NICE miniature and they are HARD to find!

KY / TN Piece
- Description: KY or Tennessee Water Bottle - This water bottle is mostly tan in color with some gray to charcoal fire marks. It is marked " Mound on Bank of Reelfoot Lake Tenn-Ky MP35". To me this makes it a Tennessee Pot, but the far North bank of Reelfoot is only 3/8 ths of a mile from the Kentucky Line, so I am not sure. This water bottle has about 3 larger pieces that were broke out on one side and have been glued back. There is also one 1/4" probe hole from the inside out, on the side of the bottom that has been repaired. There is some restoration to the neck, that appears to be mostly re-enforcement where it was pieced back together. It is a very nice water bottle from either Tennessee or Kentucky dating back to the 1960's. Pots from "either" of these are harder to get.
- Size: 6 1/2" T x 6 5/8" W
- Condition: Cracked & glued with a little restoration around rim and some filler.
