The inspiration for Casas Grandes pottery is taken from the Casas Grandes tradition. It began in the early 1960's, following the Amerind Foundation's excavation of the nearby Paquime ruins in 1958. There was little interest in the antiquities of the area until the excavation. A new awareness quickly developed.
