Mimbres Picture Pot With ‘ringtail Cat’
As is typical in many excavated prehistoric Native American pots, this interesting example of a Mimbres ‘picture’ bowl (RLK4), dating c.975-1150AD, has undergone a significant amount of restoration. Found on private lands in the mid-20th century within the Mogollon sub-group area of the southwestern U.S., the 7 5/8” wide bowl was first glued together from about 8 pieces and then the remaining missing area was rebuilt (about 25% of the total, representing most of one side and part of the bottom). On the inside of the bowl, only about 35% of the original zoomorphic image (identified by one southwestern prehistoric dealer as a ‘ring-tailed cat’) remained and the missing part was re-repainted. The bowl comes with a small display card, a map of the Mogollon area, a certificate from the Robert Anderson collection from which it was purchased by the current owner, and finally our certificate guaranteeing that the bowl is an authentic restored Mimbres picture pot. Select or ask any question by referring to either the Trocadero Item Number in the upper left portion of this page, or to this item’s unique Inventory Number, RLK 4. NOTE: if you would like to view a large number of our various listings, and at the same time limit your browsing time, try our ‘TWELVE different items on a single page format’ by simply spelling out the word TWELVE in the search box. That will quickly bring up all of our listings that have twelve different items on a page, each individually priced! And if you want to further refine the group, add one or two additional modifiers at the same time such as ‘Indian, Precolumbian, Stone, Pot, Gold, etc.’ Any item that has been sold will be so noted on its photograph.
