Description I found this item at an antique store in Kenai, Alaska. I researched with the owner of the store what this might be. It was hard to determine. I have seen pictures of this in the archeology Bible. It is a clay pot with a pointed end. From the bottom, the piece widens to its widest point at the middle and then narros and flutes out at the top. Near the top there are two handles. The color is tan/yelloish. There are blue bands and maroon bands with dark blue curves. I will get pictures later.
