Three-legged, round-bottomed bowl with a deep rim. The object has a slightly concave wall. The three conical, hollow legs have anthropomorphic applications, narrow vertical openings and rattle balls. Both sides of the vessel have been smoothed, slurried, primed and polished. Its exterior has incised decorations that were executed before firing. The primer is partially eroded. There are small cracks around the rim and on the legs. The monochrome ceramic has a red-brown base colour. There are three incised, rectangular pictorial fields on the outside of the vessel wall, which show geometric motifs. They consist of triangles and squares with cross-hatching. The narrow sides of the panels are bordered by incised, vertical bundles of lines. The legs were decorated with superimposed anthropomorphic figures placing their hands on a swollen body. The interior of the object remained undecorated. According to Lothrop 1926: highland, chocolate ware. Cultural significance: pottery produced in periods VI (1550-1000d.C.) and V (1000-500d.C.) in the Central Highlands, on the Atlantic Slope and in the Diquís region. The object appears to belong to the 1000-700d.C. phase. (Künne 2004)
