Yeah, I just got here , been busy and I missed this one... You nailed it, I think Swift Creek was first typed in Georgia, donât know for sure... whatâs neat about your piece is, ,,you can really get a birdâs eye view of the tempering,...Ok. Nuff of that, go find more,...p.s. yours is not stamped, itâs incised...The paddles werenât that big..Iâm always open for correction, I joined up to learn..Floridaboy.

Looking at it again, it has the look of the Mississippian pottery, bigger swirls, deeper etching, heavier tempering, etc...just judging from handling a bunch of it.Floridaboy.

I didn't wash it cause some times the decoration is easier to see with the ancient dirt in the grooves

Exactly right about easier to see, good call.S.H....I have put charcoal powder in grooves on light colored pieces, and baby powder on dark for a photo shoot, dusts off easy.

Another thing I do is put the light source to one side so shadows fill the grooves, every little bit helps .
