- The official start of season 3. I am going to look at the collection of ancient pottery at Eastern Arizona College (known as the Mills Collection) to decide what pots I will replicate this season. Check out the extraordinary Mills Collection of ancient Salado pottery and find out what to expect in the coming season of Andy Ward's Ancient Pottery.

Andy, I am intrigued and excited about your new season. You manage to transport me to your beautiful landscape and project me into the mindset of the early peoples of the South West. It's a journey I'm glad I can join. Thank you.
That’s exactly my point. I am taking this journey, inspired by the ancient potters, come along with me. Thanks.
Excited for season 3. Thank you for continuing to provide wonderful primitive pottery inspiration and knowledge.
You are so welcome.
Oh, I love that utilitarian ware. Looks like a great upcoming season.
Glad to hear it Chris. Thanks.
I am grateful for your channel, I had been searching for this exact genre. I know Andy shares the passion we all have for prehistoric pottery, and then some. Thanks for taking us to the warm Arizona Desert during this strange season of pandemic and political stupidity. We are all excited about season 3! My son and I have already gathered the clay we need for the ancient pottery challenge! Epic!
Awesome thanks for following along Mark. I am glad to show you all around my beautiful home of southeast Arizona.
Thank you! Wonderful collection!
Yes, I'm very excited for the new season and looking forward to giving these pots a try too. Its amazing that some of the pottery in the Mills collection looks new. It is now on my short list to visit. Thanks for your great videos, 14 minutes never went so fast.
Thanks Wes. The secret to those pots is that Vera Mills restored many of them, adding paint to areas where pieces were missing or where the pottery was dark and stained. So many of these pots look better than they did when they were new.
Andy, thanks for all you do and show,I always look forward to you new video work and I also try to duplicate as much as my abilityl WILL allow
Thanks Rob. Let’s see what you can do.
Hey Andy..great news , will be watching and doing my best to follow your inspiration and knowledge ..re watching many of your videos now ..thanks
Thanks, looking forward to seeing what you make.
Sounds like a great season. Looking forward to it.
Thank you
excited to see you working in the outdoors...that'll be a really cool element.
I think so too. Can’t wait to get started on that.
Such beautiful pieces
I think so too!
Look at tht landscape ♡
It is a beautiful area, thanks
Another great video! I really look forward the this season's potter challenge and hope to follow along.
Thanks. Can’t wait to see what you make.
They're all so beautiful, I wish I lived in AZ so I could see them myself. Looking forward to finding out what your new challenges will be.
More next Wednesday. Thanks.
Onwards and upwards Andy! I would love to see adjustments made to your brick kiln (extend the firebox and put mouseholes in the firebox not the kiln itself), also a go at Mogollon polychrome would be great to see
Thanks Rusty. I am planning some kiln improvements right now and I do have a video about Mogollon pottery coming up, you might be surprised what I have to say about Mogollon Polychrome.
Aw man, I must have missed you by a few days! I went to the Mills collection this past week (Oct. 20), and took pictures of everything. It’s astonishing how much is still intact! This might be the best of the collection, I wonder how much is hidden away?
Well, that would have been cool to run into someone who knows me while there. There are a lot of pots in the back rooms of museums, I have toured a few of them. The Maxwell, ASM, ASU, Amerind, etc.
Your work is interesting and important, just as is the work of the Mills'. Thank you for making your videos.
I wish I could see each piece in this collection from every angle. Some bowls are painted only on the inside. Interesting.
What is the reason/purpose of the shoe shaped vessels? Can you send a link to a video where you explain that?
Andy I live in Ontario Canada in the Algonquin territories. Do you know what if any ancient ceramics comes from this tribe?
I don’t know much about the pottery from the eastern portion of North America. Maybe ask at a local museum. My guess would be woodland tradition which was used all over the eastern US, the Mississippi valley and the Great Plains. Check out this video by my friend Cherylene ruclips.net/video/jzlGgodgvGg/видео.html
@@AncientPottery thank you for Cherylene’s video. Very instructional. I will pursue my research at the local museums.
Andy, what are the "boot" shaped vessels in that collection? Is there a specific use for them? I've never seen that shape before. That's not saying much, however. Your channel is my first real exposure to ancient pottery.
The plain boot shaped pots were used for cooking. I made one in a previous video but I should also make a video showing how they were used. Thanks
@@AncientPottery , instruction on how to use would be fantastic! By the way, my husband is "thrilled" at my new found and growing knowledge. 😉 I'm one of those who knows a little about a lot of things and can do a smidge of almost all of that. My top strength, according to Gallup Strength Test is "Learner". As I was extolling the lessons I've learned from you so far, he asked, "Don't you have enough to do and play with already?" 😂😂...🤔..."Nope." 😁 Thank you, Andy, for knowledge that's actually useful!
@@bonniehyden962 you are welcome. Keep always learning.
