SuBFACE treatment: 



Modifications: Smoothed before Impressed with larged warp fabrics for- 

 merly known as "cord-wrapped stick" or "cord-wrapped dowel." Interiors 

 were either smoothed with only an occasional sand particle showing, 

 which gave a raspy feel, or they were treated with a comblike object, 

 which developed a series of parallel ridges over the entire interior sur- 

 face. There was some variation from vessel to vessel. 

 Decoration: 



Technique: Fabric impressions of a close weft and wide warp covering 



the entire exterior surface from lip to base. 

 Design: Design consists of a number of shallow, longitudinal, parallel 

 grooves that run diagonal to the lip and slope downward to the 

 base of the vessel. 

 Distribution: Impressions cover the entire exterior of the vessel, some- 

 times carrying over onto the lip but rarely into the upper portion of 

 the throat. If the latter occurs the impression is spotty. 

 Form : 



Rims: Vertical or slightly flaring. 



Lips: Either rounded, flat, slightly tapered, or slightly folded. 



Body: 



Ollas: Rounded or elliptical with slight shoulders and gently constricted 



neck. 

 Bowls: Tall, wide-mouthed with vertical sides sloping to a conoidal base. 

 Base: Conoidal. 



Shape: The shape of the typical olla is a moderately open-mouthed vessel, 

 with a conoidal or subconoidal base, a shoulder that curves slightly inward 

 from a rounded or elliptical body, and a more or less vertical to slightly 

 flaring rim surmounted by lips that are about evenly divided into three 

 main groups : rounded, flattened and rounded, and narrowed and rounded. 

 The typical bowl of this ware is tall for this type of vessel, wide- 

 mouthed, with vertical sides that slope downward terminating in a conoidal 

 or subconoidal base.

Method of manufacture: Coiling, distinct fracture planes to be noted. In 



some specimens the "welding" of coil joints was not always obliterated 



and hence the width of the coils could be determined with regard to range, 



which varied from 5 to 10 mm. 



Temper: Very fine to medium fine sand. Occasionally a larger particle is 



noted, but this is rare. 

 Texture: Fine, compact.
