Pieces of this pottery vessel were found at the Arrowhead Island archeological site in Coffey County. Holes were drilled in the pot by its original owner so that cracks could be laced to mend the pot. Later archeologists reconstructed what was possible and then used plaster to fill in for the missing pieces. The Arrowhead Island site is a Early Ceramic period and Kansas City Hopewell culture village.
