#1607, Style III Bowl from Eby

This Bowl is an example of Style III from the Eby Ranch site. The Eby Ranch site (sometimes mistakenly referred to as the Ely site) is a Classic Mimbres village in Grants County, southwestern New Mexico, excavated during the 1920s and 1930s by Earl Morris (Carlson 1965) and V. G. Tannich (separately) and later by A. M. Thompson (Brody 2004; http://library.lib.asu.edu/record=b4770839~S3). The Eby Ranch site dates from about A.D. 1000 to 1130 and includes around 75 Classic Mimbres rooms. There are several additional sites on the Eby family ranch. Eby 2 and Eby 4 (a.k.a. Eby A and Eby B) were excavated in the 1920s by Earl Morris (Carlson 1965). Many of the Eby Ranch site bowls, as well as the notes from Morris?s excavations, are in the University of Colorado Museum.

G. Tannich）分别独立开展考古发掘，后续A·M·汤普森（A. M. Thompson）亦参与了该遗址的发掘工作（Brody 2004；http://library.lib.asu.edu/record=b4770839~S3）。该遗址的年代跨度约为公元1000年至1130年，共保留约75处经典明布雷斯时期的房址遗存。伊比家族牧场范围内还分布有多处其他考古遗址，其中伊比2号与伊比4号遗址（又名伊比A与伊比B）于1920年代由厄尔·莫里斯主持发掘（Carlson 1965）。大量伊比牧场遗址出土的陶碗，以及莫里斯发掘工作留存的相关笔记，目前收藏于科罗拉多大学博物馆。罗伊·L·卡尔森（Roy L.
