Clay bowl
Small, round-bottomed bowl with a wide overhanging rim. The object has three small, conical feet. The ceramic has been smoothed, slurried and primed on both sides. The primer is partially eroded. The monochrome object has a red-brown base colour. The outside of the vessel wall and the rim were highly polished. Cultural significance: red-brown ware has been produced in the Gran Nicoya region since the appearance of zoned two-coloured pottery (around 500a.C.). Similar vessel forms occur in the Tola Tricromo group (500d.C.-300a.C.). (Künne 2004)
