Description
Apache Figural Basketry Olla
ca 1900

with seven dogs on shoulder
height 20 inches x diameter 18-1/2 inches

After an olla was filled to the brim with wild grass seeds such as chia or amaranth, or domestic plant products, like corn or beans, a basketry lid or cover was put on top to protect the food inside.  Some experts believe that the use of human or animal figures on baskets began around 1875 (Hanson 1995: 206).
