One of the earliest widespread pottery types, this  Tusayan Gray Ware type served as a primary utility ware throughout Basketmaker III and Early Pueblo I.

In this variety of Lino Gray, the earliest attempts at providing vessels with a red slip were less than successful. It soon abraded or washed away, leaving only traces.

This was one of the first painted whitewares. The painted decoration on this Tusayan White Ware type resembles those found on baskets.

Kana-a Gray is characterized by neckbanding, a series of three to six corrugations encircling the neck of jars. 

Rio Grande Series

Rosa Black-on-White was one of the formative types in the San Padro Mountains area to the northwest of Santa Fe. 

Further sophistication in decoration and organic paint characterize this type.

This was the parallel to Red Mesa in the Tusayan White Ware tradition. Painted decoration is very similar, but organic paint was employed.

Similar to Flagstaff Black-on-White in design, patterns are usually bolder and larger in this Tusayan White Ware type. Interlocking barbed lines are typical of the style.

This was one of several similar Tusayan White Ware types produced in  the Chaco Canyon area characterized by wide bands of hatching without solid elements.

Designs tend to be smaller and busier than those of Sosi Black-on-White, many of the motifs multiplied throughout in this Tusayan White Ware type.

This type is characterized by banded decoration composed of large solids separated by parallel lines. Dotted triangles are reminiscent of Black Mesa Black-on-White. 

Kayenta Black-on-White is one of the finest wares produced in the Tusayan area. Designs are banded and negative-painted.

Bold designs and broad lines distinguish this Little Colorade White Ware type, similar to Black Mesa Black-on-White, but differing in paste and temper.

Interlocking, hooked scrolls, negative painting and banded designs separated by parallel lines signal the B variety of this Little Colorado White Ware type.

Large fields of small, closely-spaced elements, particularly dotted squares, exemplify this relatively rare Little Colorado White Ware type.

The only Cibola White Ware type with organic paint, designs tend to be linear and solid, often painted in the Flagstaff Style.

The organic paints used in the Mesa Verde tradition and the pearly white slips make this type quite distinctive.

Santa Fe Black-on-White is found in the Upper Rio Grande area. It is derived from earlier types, Gallina and Kwahe's Black-on-White, but has a better slip and is more carefully smoothed.

La Plata Black-on-White is the earliest of the painted Cibola White Wares.

This Cibola White Ware type was one of the first to demonstrate a more sophisticated organization in painted decoration.

Higher sophistication in decoration and mineral paint make this the counterpart to Kana-a for the Cibola White Ware tradition.

This was the dominant black-on-white type in the Cibola White Ware tradition during this period. Designs continue to be more elaborate, executed in mineral paint.

This Cibola White Ware type has designs similar to those found in the Chaco area, but they include occasional solid elements and were executed in mineral paint.

This type was made in the Chaco Canyon area during the peak of Chacoan supremacy. Most designs consist of interlocking hatched bands.

The designs on this Cibola White Ware type consist of linear and negative-painted solid elements, occasional set off by panels of hatching.

Escavada Black-on-White usually carries bold motifs executed in broad lines and these decorations are generally based on triangles.

San Juan Series

Mancos Black-on-White is found in the Mesa Verde area, east of Mesa Verde National Park. Mancos patterns tend to consist of wide bands of hatched elements as opposed to the bolder  contemporary McElmo patterns.

Designs for this White Mountain Red Ware type consist primarily of interlocking solid and hatched elements, executed in organic paint on a dark red slip.

Puerco Black-on-Red has interlocking frets, dotted triangles, broad lines, stripes, stepped parallel lines and interlocking scroll triangles may be arranged in continuous bands around the vessel.

Wingate Polychrome is Wingate Black-on-Red with white and red designs on the exterior. Early examples are Houck variety, later version Querino variety.

This type is the redware equivalent of Tularosa Black-on-white, fired in an oxidizing atmosphere to achieve a red ground.

This type is the same as St Johns Black-on-Red, but the exteriors of bowls have added decoration executed in white paint.

This type is the result of the introduction of glaze paints, which provided richer, glossier colors, late in the history of St Johns Polychrome.

La Plata Black-on-Orange is the earliest black-on-red type in the northern plateau area. Vessels were slipped and were fired in an oxidizing atmosphere.

An unusual Tsegi Orange Ware type found in southeastern Utah, this pottery was perhaps the earliest Anasazi redware, and may have been inspired by Mogollon types.

This was one of the earliest Tsegi Orange Wares in the Tusayan area, and also the first to employ designs composed primarily of hatched elements.

Wide red bands outlined in black are characteristic of this Tsegi Orange Ware type, but while the A variety has solid designs between the bands, the B variety also contains hatching.

Little Colorado Series

Deadmans Black-on-Red was one of the first black-on-red types in the northern plateau area. The decoration, which generally consisted of coarse lines, wide bands and triangles, was often polished over before firing, blurring it slightly.

Hopi Series

Jeddito Black-on-Orange was the first of a long line of Hopi yellow wares. It differs from later Jeddito Black-on-Yellow in both the more formal geometric designs and darker paste color.

A precursor to the historic Hopi types, the Jeddito Yellow Ware type has asymmetrical patterns and is painted on both interior and exterior.

The interiors of vessels of this Jeddito Yellow Ware type are painted by spattering pigment onto the surface.

This Jeddito Yellow Ware type is characterized by white outlining around bold designs emphasizing linear and solid elements.
