Pottery gives us a view into the lives of the people who created the vessels. They were used for cooking, storage, and other purposes. The type of sand used to temper the clay often will help determine the locale in which the pottery was made. Finally, the style and decoration is often specific to a family, tribe or people. In the Arizona-New Mexico area, pottery is the key to information regarding the migration of people from northern New Mexico south and into southern Arizona. Although they did not carry the pots, the process and style of the pots remained with the people and the temper of the clay gives a hint to the locale. Temper is often the sand from nearby rivers and arroyos.
