ca. Mid 17th Century

Certain 17th century Huron-Wendat sites contain large quantities of frilled pottery.

There is alot of debate to the origin of this style of pottery however one hypothesis involves that the Huron-Wendat may have been experimenting with decoration on frilled pots as result of newcomer influence.
