Actually, I was told that Anasazi is another case of miscommunication between indigenous people and ignorant white invaders, and that Anasazi is not the name the natives gave to themselves and their ancestors, but the name they gave to strangers who might be enemies. But, since I wasn't told what the correct name is, I pretty much have to keep using it. "Ancestral Puebloans" might be an accurate historical identification, but it's not a name.
So, this is pottery made between roughly 1400 to 800 years ago by the "Anasazi" people of Mesa Verde in what is now Colorado. Mesa Verde is one of the largest concentrations of cliff dwellings to have survived until modern times, and a very cool place to visit. Comments
it looks beautiful

The earlier culture, before they learned to make pottery, made some of the finest baskets ever produced in North America.
-- The only thing that's truly impossible is proving that something is impossible. All people are alone in some ways; some people are alone in all ways. very nice craftsmanship
