An Anasazi jar (also called Ancestral Puebloan pottery) is a ceramic vessels made by the ancient Indigenous peoples of the American Southwest, primarily in the Four Corners region (modern-day Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah). The term "Anasazi" is an older Navajo word meaning "ancient ones" or "enemy ancestors"; today, archaeologists and descendant communities often prefer Ancestral Puebloan.
These jars, known as ollas (storage jars) or seed jars, date mainly from roughly 500–1300 CE, spanning the Basketmaker through Pueblo III periods. They served practical purposes like storing water, grain, seeds, or food, while also showcasing sophisticated artistry.
