That's the last of my museum photos.  It had another section about how archaeology is done, but I skipped that to keep looking at actual artifacts.

    1. That pitcher caught my eye as well...perhaps some European colonization influence since it was late 19th century..

    1. I only spent time in 3 museums on this trip...oh, not counting the Georgia O'Keeffe one...3 with ancient pottery! There must be a whole lot that never got to museums, as well as in all the other collections.
