c. 1300-1325 A.D.
Pueblo IV Period
Pinedale Black-on-White was first defined by Haury and Hargrave (1931). According to Dean Wilson at the Southwest Ceramic Typology Project, "This type represents the last of the Cibola White Ware types and was produced from the middle thirteenth to early fourteenth century (Wood 1987). Distribution of this type is much more limited than that noted for earlier Cibola white ware types and reflects contraction of populations into communities spread over a much smaller geographic area. Pinedale Black-on-white is similar to other late Cibola White Ware types but is distinguished by the presence of a vitrified or glassy paint" (Wilson 2012).
