<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 9613242, member: 8267"]One clue to distinguish traditional Hopi/Pueblo from Mata Ortiz may be a difference in the firing technique. Traditional Pueblo potters fire in a simple open fire, where the fuel can sometimes contact the pots, creating fire clouds. Mata Ortiz potters "used to fire a single pot inside a sagger in a garbage can using wood as the fuel", but now may use electric kilns. Both techniques protect the pots from direct contact with the fuel.</p><p><a href="https://ceramicartsnetwork.org/pottery-making-illustrated/pottery-making-illustrated-article/Finding-Mata-Ortiz#" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://ceramicartsnetwork.org/pottery-making-illustrated/pottery-making-illustrated-article/Finding-Mata-Ortiz#" rel="nofollow">https://ceramicartsnetwork.org/pottery-making-illustrated/pottery-making-illustrated-article/Finding-Mata-Ortiz#</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
