Commentary
St. John's polychrome style. Red and orange pottery reached its peak in the Little Colorado River area of North-central Arizona and adjacent New Mexico. The product of Anasazi and Mogollon aesthetic integration, this ware is distinguished by designs with solid or hatched black geometric patterns (an Anasazi feature) on red or orange bowl interiors (a Mogollon feature) together with innovative white painting on bowl exteriors.
