Context (Amendments / updates)
When the Kechib:wa collection was packed for storage in c. 1986 the pottery was assessed by museum staff and boxed according to type. This sherd was packed with Kwakina Polychrome material; however, it is unclear how or why this sherd was identified thus. This type has therefore not been included in the description.
