Hand Made Caddo Jar with Two 3D Lizards on the Outside Pointing Up Towards the Spout Opening
In Very Good Condition
Caddo pottery from the Arkansas–Texas–Louisiana–Oklahoma region (especially the Red River valley and adjacent areas) includes rare examples of jars and other vessels with amphibian/reptilian imagery, often lizards, salamanders, or similar “Beneath World” creatures. The prehistoric and early historic Caddo (ca. AD 800/900–1700s) were renowned for finely made ceramics—jars, bottles, bowls, and specialized forms—in both utilitarian and fine wares. Most decoration is geometric (incised, engraved, brushed, punctated, trailed, neck-banded, or appliquéd), but zoomorphic elements appear as a minority tradition.
