Ceramic fragment (Archaeological fragment)

Description

This fragment of unglazed red earthenware may be part of the flaring rim of a vessel of now unknown form. The object seemingly is undecorated, though the edge of the rim is slightly darker and may reflect mostly-lost ornament. This object is most likely associated with the Hopi culture. As per the donor Mr. L. T. Alexander, the fragment was acquired "near the Little Colorado River in Winslow, Arizona, 50 miles west of the Petrified Forest." No details are recorded regarding the discovery methods used for this object.
