Three-legged, round-bottomed bowl with a straight wall. The outside of the vessel wall is decorated with an anthropomorphic head protome on the rim, applied ridges and fine incisions. The hollow, conical legs have several narrow openings. The object has been smoothed on both sides, slurried, primed and highly polished. The vessel has several glued fractures. The monochrome ceramic has a red-brown base colour. The protome has a hollow, cylindrical head covering. It belongs to a broad-shouldered male figure wearing a necklace with chest jewellery. He holds a rattle and a staff in his hands. The outside of the wall is divided into four rectangular sectors by vertical, bulge-shaped overlays. Three fields show an incised decoration consisting of intertwined wavy bands. The motifs are reminiscent of textiles or wickerwork. The primed inside of the object remains undecorated. After Lothrop 1926: orange-brown ware. According to Lehman 1913: El Viejo style. Cultural significance: the type is known both from burials and from household contexts. Its ceramics show design influences from the Central Highlands and the Atlantic Slope of Costa Rica. (Künne 2004)
