Showlow Arizona

White Mountain Red Ware is a group of related ceramic types produced in the southwestern United States between A.D. 1000 and 1500. Types consist of red-slipped vessels painted with black or black and white designs. Although the pottery is found throughout larger portions of Arizona and New Mexico the locus of production appears to have been eastern central Arizona and west-central New Mexico. Culturally this area was shared by the Mogollon and Ancestral Puebloans.

Overview

Carlson divides both the chronology and the distribution of White Mountain Red Ware into three distinct regions, Cibola, Mogollon Rim, and Rio Grande valley.

The Cibola region is defined as the region between Tohatchi, New Mexico and Carrizo Wash, North to South, and the continental divide to the Petrified Forest, east to west. The region is comprised of a mix of Mogollon and Ancestral Pueblo although the region is defined as essentially Puebloan by A.D. 1000. The pottery types associated with this region are; Puerco Black-on-red, Wingate Black-on-red, Wingate Polychrome, St. Johns Black-on-red, St. Johns Polychrome, Heshota Black-on-red, Heshota Polychrome, and Kwakina Polychrome.

The Mogollon Rim region is Roosevelt Lake to White River, west to east, and Silver Creek to the Salt River, north to south. This are stays predominantly Mogollon through the Pueblo III period and only later becomes predominantly Puebloan. Pottery types with their distribution centered on this area are; Pinedale Black-on-red, Pinedale Polychrome, Cedar Creek Polychrome, Fourmile Black-on-red, Fourmile Polychrome and Showlow Polychrome.

The final region is the Rio Grande Valley. This area is comprised of Puebloan people who continue today. This region's Glaze Ware tradition, develops out of St. Johns Polychrome, Pinedale Black-on-red/Polychrome and Heshota Polychrome.
