A Pre Columbian pottery vessel made of Gray ceramic, Chimu culture, Peru, presumably 900 to 1200 AD.

Pre-Columbian pottery pitchers (or jars/pouring vessels) were crafted by Indigenous cultures across the Americas from roughly 1000 BCE to the early 1500s CE, before European contact. They served practical purposes like holding and pouring liquids (water, chicha/maize beer, or ceremonial drinks), as well as ritual, funerary, and status-symbol roles.
