Fragment of an Imported Chinese Bowl. Dimensions: 2 5/8 in. (6.7 cm). Date: late 7th-first half 8th century.Chinese ceramics were highly valued and commonly imitated in Nishapur. The Nishapur imitations took different forms: the whiteness of the Chinese porcelains led local potters to develop the opaque white glazes with which they covered their wares, while the three-color sancai Chinese imports led to the invention of splashware, made by dripping brown, yellow, and green glazes over their pots. This medallion from the base of a bowl, with the molded image of a dragon with a flaming jewel, is an example of an imported Chinese sancai ware object; its find at Nishapur is an important piece of evidence in the story of Nishapuri pottery development.

Mimbres painters, wielding brushes made of yucca leaves, created both representational and geometric images on the slipped interior of nearly hemispheric bowls. These designs feature a great range of symbolic patterns as well as references to elaborate mythological narratives. Such bowls were ritually "killed" during funerary rituals when a central hole was punctured, rendering it non-functional in its journey to the afterlife.. Bowl, Scorpions. Mogollon (Mimbres).
