According to Lothrop (1926): Nicoya polychrome ware. Cultural significance: the objects of the Papagayo Policromo group represent the beginning of polychrome painting on a white-yellowish ground in the Gran Nicoya region. The tradition lasted until the Policromo Tardío (1350-1520d.C.). Its decoration shows a strong Mesoamerican influence. It manifests itself, among other things, in the replacement of lizard and bat themes by depictions of cats of prey and snakes. (Künne 2004)
