Incised Vessel

Mississippian (Ancestral Quapaw)

Not on view

The separate, but related, cultural groups known collectively as Mississippian flourished in the southeast of what is now the United States in the centuries prior to European contact. Although fine ceramics are known from the region as early as A.D. 800, distinctive vessels in the style known as Rhodes Incised, named for the Rhodes Place Site in Crittenden Country where similar ceramics have been found, were made between the 13th and 14th centuries.
