Small, spherical jug with a slightly protruding neck. The object has been smoothed and polished on both sides. Its exterior is primed, painted and lightly polished. The primer and paint are partially eroded. There are several fractures on the neck. The pottery has a white-brownish base colour, which was painted red and black on the outside of the vessel. On the body there is an upright, circumferential frieze bordered by black bands. It shows diagonal bundles of lines, trapezoids and dots that appear to imitate textile or wickerwork. The object is also decorated with two red bands running around the centre. The neck of the vessel is painted red on both sides. According to Lothrop 1926: highland polychrome ware. Cultural significance: the pottery of the Mora group was produced in the north-west of Costa Rica and traded to the Central Highlands and the Atlantic region of the country. It uses design elements (seated anthropomorphic figures with headdresses, mat motif, Kan cross) that are also known from the Maya ceramics (Copador group) of the Clásico Tardío (900-600d.C.). The variant is related to the Gillén Negro sobre café claro (1350-1000d.C.) and Palmira Policromo (1350-1000d.C.) groups. (Künne 2004)
