Small, zoomorphic vascular flute with an inflated resonating body and four feet. The instrument has six finger holes and a short, conical mouthpiece. The object was smoothed, sanded, primed and painted. The primer and paint are heavily eroded. The ceramic has a white-brownish base colour, which was painted red and black-brown. The shape of the object is reminiscent of a mountain pig (zaino or jabalí). Its back was decorated with black and brown geometric motifs. According to Lothrop 1926: highland polychrome ware. Cultural significance: the ceramics of the Mora group were produced in north-west Costa Rica and traded to the Central Highlands and the Atlantic region of the country. It uses design elements (seated anthropomorphic figures with headdresses, mat motif, Kan cross) that are also known from the Maya ceramics (Copador group) of the Clásico Tardío (900-600d.C.). The variant is related to the Gillén Negro sobre café claro (1350-1000d.C.) and Palmira Policromo (1350-1000d.C.) groups. (Künne 2004)
