These collared rim sherds were recovered from an Early Ceramic period camp site in Elk County and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 1972. The donor reconstructed the pottery before donating it, though two sherds have now broken apart. One rim is decorated with series of vertical and diagonal lines. The other rim is decorated with incised crosshatched marks, similar to those on Kansas City Hopewell pottery.
