    Can anyone tell me anything about this pot? It’s red clay, shell tempered, has similar faces on opposite sides, approx 6in in diameter. I have no idea of its age, origin, etc. I have seen effigy pottery in the same style and similar facial design before, but I don’t remember when or where. Thanks in advance!
