Abstract

Ceramic bowls from the Greater Southwest are used to show how changes in the exterior decoration of serving vessels are associated with the proxemics of ritual performances. Across the northern Southwest the first use of exterior designs and polychrome ceramics is during the Pueblo III period, which corresponds to a shift in settlement aggregation and the use of open plaza spaces. With the transition to the more enclosed plazas of the Early Pueblo IV period, smaller and less visible exterior designs were used. The trend reversed itself with the use of larger plazas at later Pueblo IV period sites, where serving bowls with greater visual impact were used. Panregional trends are bolstered by a case study from the Mogollon Rim region of Arizona to show how changes in the visual performance characteristics of bowls are associated with the spatial and social proxemics of suprahousehold feasting rituals. I use several characteristics of serving bowls including their size, slip colors, paint and slip contrasts, and the size of exterior designs. These are related to the size and diversity of performance spaces, including plazas, and to other evidence for changes in feasting practices, such as roasting features and faunal remains. I conclude that the changes seen in serving vessels are important for looking at shifts in the scale, visibility, and diversity of public gatherings within Ancestral Pueblo social and ritual trajectories.

Résumé

Résumé

Se analizan los cuencos cerámicos del suroeste norteamericano para demostrar la asociación entre cambios en la decoración exterior de las vasijas de servir alimentos y cambios en la organización social del espacio durante la ejecución de ritos religiosos. Primero, se examinan cambios pan-regionales en los cuencos Pueblo de varias áreas prehistóricas del suroeste septentrional. El primer uso de diseños exteriores y de cerámica polícroma correspondió a un período de agregación y al uso de plazas abiertas durante el período Pueblo III. Con la transformación de la plaza en un espacio más cerrado en el período Pueblo IV Temprano, aparecieron los diseños mas pequeños y menos llamativos. Esta tendencia se revirtió durante el uso de plazas grandes en sitios más tardíos del período Pueblo IV, cuando se utilizaron cuencos de impacto visual más pronunciado. Segundo, el análisis se enfoca en el caso de los asentamientos y cerámica de la región de Mogollon (Arizona) para argumentar que los cambios en las características visuales de estos cuencos están estrechamente vinculados a la organización espacial y social de las festividades a nivel de grupo. Se analizan especificamente la variación en el tamaño de los cuencos de servir, color del engobe, contrastes de engobe y pintura decorativa, y relación entre el tamaño de los diseños exteriores y el tamaño de los cuencos. Estas variables se relacionan con el tamaño y diversidad de los espacios sociales, incluyendo plazas, y con otra evidencia de cambios en festividades, así como asaderos comunales y restos de fauna. Se concluye que los cambios observados en los cuencos de servir alimentos son importantes indicadores de cambios en la escala, visibilidad, y diversidad de las reuniones públicas dentro de las trajectorias sociales y rituales de los antiguos Pueblo.
