What’s the Deal with Corrugated Whitewares? An Analysis of the Corrugated Whitewares from the Haynie Site

Summary

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Corrugated exterior whitewares in the Ancestral Puebloan world are often thought of as a rarity. While these ceramics are not as common as gray ware corrugated or regular black-on-white ceramics, they are an important blending of pottery manufacture. Corrugated whiteware ceramics can also help us begin to understand symbolism and meaning of corrugation itself. In this poster, I will discuss my analysis of the corrugated whiteware sherds that have been thus far discovered at the Haynie site. The Haynie site is a multicomponent site with occupancy ranges from the Basketmaker III period to the Pueblo II period, specifically focusing on the ceramic manufacture from the Pueblo II Great House component. Through this analysis and previous Great House site data from the region, I hypothesize that corrugated whitewares are associated with the Chaco Phenomenon.
