Standing, anthropomorphic miniature. The object has three massive legs attached to a hollow, barrel-shaped body. The figure rests its bent arms against the body. It wears ear jewellery and has a round headdress decorated with fine carvings. Two small opposing openings appear at the neck, which were used for suspension. The pottery was smoothed, slurried, primed and polished. The base coat is heavily eroded. The monochrome ceramic has a red-brown base colour. The posture and face indicate a standing, anthropomorphic figure. Its cap is decorated with two rectangular incisions that form a cross. The outer line of the motif is decorated with small triangles. Social significance: similar objects have been interpreted as pendants or vessel pipes (Lehmann 1913). According to Lothrop 1926: red ware figurine. According to Lehmann 1913: El Viejo style. Cultural significance: the type is known both from burials and from household contexts. His ceramics show design influences from the Central Highlands and the Atlantic Slope of Costa Rica.
