The Jornadans made use of step frets and stepped outlines in other depictions, including so-called "rain altars" or "cloud terraces." In Mesoamerican cultures, the stepped designs represented flowing water, energy, or lightning. Serpents, frequently portrayed in Jornada art, also are associated with water. Serpents wearing a horned or plumed cap appear in numerous rock art sites and have been likened to the Mesoamerican deity, Quetzalcoatl.

Notes: Southwest pottery motifs are polysynthetic; compounds, blends...motifs are words...one
Mimbres pot is a compound name...I´ve become a big fan of Mimbres pottery!
