Three-part vessel with a ring-shaped body and a small jug on top. Both parts of the object were decorated with geometric incisions. The jug has a projecting, undecorated rim and a medium-sized protome. The outside of the ceramic is smoothed, slurried, primed, incised and polished. The monochrome ceramic has an orange-red base colour. On the ring-shaped, hollow object component there are four vertical line fields connected by hatched triangles. The jug is decorated with a central, sculptural appliqué depicting a beak. Curvilinear lines run along its wall, probably symbolising the eyes of an avimorphic creature. The inside of the object remains undecorated, apart from the mottled neck. According to Lothrop 1926: orange brown ware. According to Lehmann 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.
