Description
Here is your opportunity to own a prehistoric Anasazi/Tularosa pottery cup. Tularosa pottery was produced by the ancestral Pueblo, the Anasazi, beginning about 1150 A.D. and continuing through about 1500 A.D.. Generally associated with large, late stage Anasazi villages, the Tularosa type is generally found in the Northern Mogollon and Southern Cibola areas. This Tularosa Black-on-White cup is undecorated on the outside but lavishly decorated on the interior. It would be a conversation piece in your home or office decor or a great addition to your collection but we would not recommend using it for your morning coffee. Bid now and make it yours!
PROVENANCE: Rust collection. The history of this collection comes from the private property of Dennis Sipe's White Mountain Hereford Ranch near Springerville, AZ. This well documented prehistoric site was excavated by William Hinckley. Mr. Sipe then wound up with the pottery and artifacts collection, which he kept and displayed until death. After Mr. Sipe passed away, the Rust family acquired the collection. Included is a copy of a history of the ruin (believed to have been written by Mr. Hinckley in 1987) in which it is clearly stated that no burial sites were found or disturbed.
