content: Two pieces of ceramic from Hawikuh, New Mexico. The larger, rounded piece is 2.25 cm by 2.25 cm and the smaller rectangular piece is 2 cm by 1.25 cm. Both pieces are quite flat and smooth and the larger seems to have some black pigment on one side. It is possible they were used as gaming pieces or scraping sherds, but their origin is unclear.
