Identified there as "Sikyatki Bichrome bowl, 1385 - 1629; 9 7/16" x 4 5/16" (24 cm. x 11 cm.). Excavated by Jesse Walter Fewkes in 1895. The visual effect of polychrome on this bowl appears to have been achieved through the watering down of the dark-brow, iron-manganese pigment, thereby creating a reddish wash that was applied to the figure's hand and "wing."" Schramm posits that jar E421980 was made by Nampeyo partly inspired by the design on A155570.
