    Unusual alligator who's tail becomes a snake. Thought it came from a grave site because inside the pot is very strong earthy when sprayed with water. I thought South American or southern tribe of American Indian because alligators are in southern states especially Florida. Could be Mexican too I suppose. It was high temperature fired because of the high pitch produced when tapped. The images confuse me and the earthy smell indicates it was in the earth for an extended amount of time. That all I know....Help. Thanks Lee
