bird on it? That's a Zia pot and that's a Zia bird. Now look at that duller pot next to it. That's a fine Acoma pot, with a parrot on it—according to legend the parrot is said to have led the tribe here from Central America. But the rarest of the lot is that pot at the right end of the shelf. You can tell it's Zia because of its heavy clay, fine glaze, and the rich lozenges of pomegranate red and black, and yet there is an Acoma parrot on it. This odd borrowing is extremely rare. . . .
