Comentarios: | El Morro differs from other lead-glazed coarse earthenwares in its poorly smoothed surface, gritty texture and thin, transparent glaze. Lead-glazed coarse earthenwares matching this description have been found in early 16th century Caribbean sites, as well as later sites throughout the region, and it is likely that Iberian and Mexican wares are grouped together under this rubric. |
