Description
English: Painted Jar
  • Majiayao Culture
  • Late Neolithic Period (3300 - 2200 B.C.)
Created by peoples of the Majiayao Culture, who were located along the upper reaches of the Yellow River, this jar would have stored food or water. The body is painted in typical Majiayao pottery colours of orange, yellow, and black, and features whirlpool designs that suggest the Neolithic Chinese used water patterns as a form of decoration.
