Fragmented jug with a cylindrical body and short, straight neck. The body imitates the shape of a cocoa fruit. The object has a fragmented base with narrow, vertical openings and several rattle balls. The object has been smoothed and sanded on both sides. Its exterior is primed, painted and polished. The primer and paint are partially eroded. The ceramic has a white-reddish base colour, which was painted red and black. There is a frieze around the neck with highly stylised, zoomorphic motifs. Vertical red stripes run along the body. They lie in furrow-like indentations and are bordered by thin black lines. There is a circumferential frieze on the base consisting of meandering red lines. According to Lothrop 1926: highland polychrome ware, degenerated plumed serpent, type H. Cultural significance: the pottery of the Mora group was produced in north-west Costa Rica and traded to the Central Highlands and the Atlantic region of the country. The variant has been documented both in burials and in settlement contexts. It does not occur in Nicaragua. (Künne 2004)
