#7049, Style III Bowl from Mattocks

This Bowl is an example of Style III from the Mattocks site, a Mimbres village in the middle Mimbres Valley, in Grants County, southwestern New Mexico. Mattocks was occupied during the Late Pithouse and Classic Mimbres periods (ca. AD 550-1130). It has eight Classic roomblocks with a total of about 180 rooms. Mattocks was partly excavated by Paul Nesbitt (Logan Museum, Beloit College) in 1929. Then, in the 1970s, it was a key focus of research by the Mimbres Foundation (LeBlanc 1983: Chapter 8, http://library.lib.asu.edu/search~S3?/aLeBlanc%2C+Steven/aleblanc+steven/1%2C2%2C16%2CB/frameset&FF=aleblanc+steven+a&9%2C%2C15), and much of the material from that work is at the Maxwell Museum, University of New Mexico. Archaeology Southwest now has the easement for the Mattocks site in perpetuity.此碗为马特克斯遗址（Mattocks site）所出第三风格器物，该遗址是位于美国新墨西哥州西南部格兰特县中明布雷斯谷的明布雷斯（Mimbres）村落遗址。马特克斯遗址的使用年代涵盖晚棚屋期（Late Pithouse）与经典明布雷斯时期（Classic Mimbres periods，约公元550年至1130年）。该遗址现存8处经典时期房址群，总计约180间房舍。1929年，保罗·内斯比特（Paul Nesbitt，贝洛伊特学院洛根博物馆）对该遗址进行了部分发掘。20世纪70年代，明布雷斯基金会（Mimbres Foundation）将其列为核心研究对象（莱布兰克1983：第8章，http://library.lib.asu.edu/search~S3?/aLeBlanc%2C+Steven/aleblanc+steven/1%2C2%2C16%2CB/frameset&FF=aleblanc+steven+a&9%2C%2C15），此次研究所得的多数出土遗物现藏于新墨西哥大学麦克斯韦博物馆（Maxwell Museum）。如今，西南考古协会（Archaeology Southwest）永久持有马特克斯遗址的保护地役权。
