* Got any ideas on these Sherds ???

[curious kat]

...was wondering if this triangle thing is some kind of symbol that anyone's seen before?



...and this is pretty unusual, looks like it was a 3D "Z" !?



...thanks for looking & helping...

Is the triangle actually done on purpose or does it look to be a accident like a chip in the paint?

 

[curious kat]

...it's actually painted on, not a boo-boo rock. My first thought was maybe a mountain?

Well could be a mountain if you have them there where you live at. Could be a mound to if you have them. Must of been something special for who ever made the dish. I guess you will have to find more of it might be a treasure map of sorts.

JMO a lot of Native Americans related to geometric design's, it could be just a shape that was used, but it is a dang cool find

rock....yes we do have mountains around & hills surrounding also. No mounds that I know of though. I do have some more sherds in a box, think I'll check to see if any are part of this one. "Treasure map"........lol...would be nice!

painter....thanks!

monsterrack.....yes...more than likely a design. I was looking at it again and that "arch" & white part surrounding the "triangle/mt." almost looks like clouds maybe...think I'm making to much of it...lol

I wonder why they didn't finish the "hole" that was started on it in the corner? It doesn't go all the way through.

Your a funny girl, haha

rock...funny "ha-ha" or just funny?

 

[curious kat]

Don't know if anyone will see this but just found out something about that marking on the sherd. I got a little booklet of SW NA symbols and there's 2 little black triangles, one points up...meaning "day" and one pointing down meaning night! That round arch kind of does look like it could be a cloud...so?

Great investing cat! Hope you get your answers.

 

[naturegirl]

A cloud, or the sun? nice to know about the triangles, that's interesting

 

[curious kat]

golden sluice....thanks...trying.

naturegirl.....could be a sun, that's in the "day". lol But looks like the "cloud/sun" goes back up on the right...could even have continued all around the bowl in a "scalloped" pattern maybe?
