Native
American Pottery -
In the Beginning Pottery,
along with basketmaking, is one of the earliest craft activities of
tribal cultures. From Africa to Papua New Guinea, pots were created
for utilitarian purposes. They were used for storage, cooking and to
carry seeds and foods. In Native America, more nomadic tribes tended
to use baskets as their primary carriers and storage vessels while the
pueblo societies, which were settled in place, built pots for all of
these purposes. With time to
create pots of various sizes, Pueblo indians began to add designs to
their creations.
The
earliest designs were thumbprints and corrugations. Later, color clay
slips were used for painted designs of creatures and geometric symbols.
The designs appear to be intended both to honor mythological figures
and game, and to satisfy the human need for beautiful objects.
