According to the New Mexico Office of Archaeological Studies, "Bidahochi Black-on-white was defined by Hargrave (1932). This type was produced in the fourteenth century from about A.D. 1325 to 1400. It is the last type associated with the Tusayan White Ware tradition. Bidahochi black-on-white and is transitional between and very similar to Jeddito black-on-yellow except that it was fired in a neutral rather than oxidizing atmosphere (Colton 1956; Colton and Hargrave 1932; Hays 1991; Smith 1971).
