Recovered from Earl Morris' excavation of Room193, Aztec West Ruin. For Room 193 Morris described “refuse that had been deposited on the second floor, including fragments of a considerable number of very fine medium-sized water jars and mugs that were shattered, possibly intentionally, judging from their number and the fact that they were practically new and of the same potter. Another atypical Chaco water jar had the entire surface completely hidden by a coat of lacquer bearing an elaborate design in yellow, red, and black” (Morris 1928:362).

编结凉鞋，入藏编号AZRU-00008，目录编号2822。档案号Morris FS 5526。2006年由劳里·韦伯斯特（Laurie Webster）完成分析。该器物为精细编织的二上二下编结凉鞋，鞋头带有编结凸起，后跟微凹，后跟带采用2S-Z捻向的丝兰（yucca）纤维制作。鞋头缺失，后跟处带有孔洞。尺寸：长25.5厘米，宽10厘米。
影像资料：AZRU8-2822A：精细编结凉鞋正视图；AZRU8-2822B：背面视图。该器物出土自厄尔·莫里斯（Earl Morris）对阿兹特克西遗址（Aztec West Ruin）193号房的发掘工作。
针对193号房，莫里斯在报告中记载：“二层堆积有出土废弃物，其中包含大量制作精良的中型水罐与马克杯碎片。从其数量、器物几乎全新且出自同一制陶匠人之手的特征判断，这些器物可能系人为击碎。另有一件非典型查科（Chaco）风格水罐，器表通体被一层覆盖有黄、红、黑三色精细纹饰的漆层所包裹。”（Morris 1928:362）
