#162, Style III Bowl from McSherry

This Bowl is an example of Style III from the McSherry site (also known as McSherry ruin). The McSherry site is located near the NAN Ranch ruin in the middle Mimbres River Valley, Grants County, New Mexico. McSherry has at least two Classic Mimbres (ca. A.D. 1000-1130) roomblocks, which were badly damaged by looters. It also has an adjacent Black Mountain phase (ca. A.D. 1200-1300) pueblo, and ceramics suggest the presence of an earlier Pithouse period occupation. Dr. Harry Shafer conducted preliminary excavations at McSherry in 1981 and undertook subsequent surface collections. Artifacts from Shafer?s excavation are curated by the Western New Mexico State University.此陶碗为麦克谢里遗址（McSherry site，亦称麦克谢里废墟）所出土的III式风格器物范例。麦克谢里遗址坐落于美国新墨西哥州格兰特县米姆布雷斯河中游河谷的南恩牧场遗址（NAN Ranch ruin）附近。该遗址至少存有两处经典米姆布雷斯文化（Classic Mimbres，约公元1000年至1130年）的房址群，曾遭盗墓者严重破坏。遗址同时毗邻一处黑山期（Black Mountain phase，约公元1200年至1300年）的普韦布洛聚落（pueblo）；出土陶器佐证了该区域更早存在坑屋时期（Pithouse period）的人类活动遗存。哈里·谢弗（Harry Shafer）博士于1981年在麦克谢里遗址开展初步发掘，并随后进行了地表采集工作。谢弗发掘所获的出土文物由西新墨西哥州立大学（Western New Mexico State University）收藏管护。
