Chupadero Black-on-White Jar

by Roy Winkelman

This is the fifth in the Photo of the Month series. Each month, I select one photo from the ClipPix ETC website and give a few examples of how teachers can make connections to various subject areas or use the photo a springboard for class discussion or individual research.

I took this photo in February of 2014 at the Gran Quivira Contact Station Exhibit, Pueblo Missions National Monument, New Mexico. It’s one of several dozen pottery photographs from the exhibit. Use the resources below to learn more about this distinctive style of pottery and the people who made it.
