An Addition to My Ceramics Study

The pictures below are Mimbres pots. The Mimbres people lived around what is now the American Southwest, and around 1000 years ago, they produced a vast amount of pottery and bowls, with vivid depictions of human-animal interaction, and possibly indicating some supernatual or ritual elements as well. This particular bowl below came from our Anthro dept. I need to illustrate every piece, and I was hoping to be able to reconstruct the missing pieces as well, giving a full view of an intact bowl. Then I could piece the copies together to see the bowl in its complete form. Piecing together a 1000 year-old bowl, however, is not the easiest thing to attempt. Masking tape, which is usually an artist's silent best friend, is more useful here as a temporary adhesive, one that won't leave sticky marks on the bowl.
It sucks that I'm gonna have to give it back, because how many times in my life can I say (with a clear conscience) "Yeah, I have a 1000 year-old Mimbres Pot on my kitchen table"?
Anyway, I'm not going to bait anyone with a question about this, instead, here's a link if anyone wants to learn a little more about Mimbres pots and people.
