<p>[QUOTE="antidiem, post: 4484592, member: 30"]I am not a museum person and this is not my area of expertise, but I don't believe either of these are old enough to be pre-Columbian. The second one appears to have white stuff deliberately applied to make it appear to be "dirty" like from a dig? but that just looks like white stuff to me. Also appears the maker dripped or splattered a few drops of the white stuff onto the lizard jug, probably by accident. The clay used for the lizard jug doesn't look old to me and the lizard is not very well done. Even the crack across the lip of the jug looks fresh and new, no grime has collected in the hairline with use. </p><p><br /></p><p>Welcome to the forum, [USER=76941]@will perez[/USER] <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
