label: Notes
content: "Rosa" most likely refers to Doña (a Spanish honorific courtesy title or form of address for a woman) Rosa Real de Nieto or her family. Doña Rosa lived in San Bartolo de Coyotopec and discovered a way to create a shiny black finish on pottery. Doña Rosa died in 1980, but the tradition of making the pottery is being carried on by her family at Alfarería Doña Rosa, a workshop and store.
