Ovaloid jug with a hollow base, convex neck and retracting rim. The object has been smoothed, slurried and primed on both sides. Its exterior is painted. The primer and paint are heavily eroded. The pottery has a white-yellowish base colour, which was painted red-orange and black-brown on the outside of the vessel. Below the rim there is a frieze around the rim, which shows zoomorphic motifs. The head and body of the snake-like creatures are separated. The base is decorated with coloured triangles. Irregular traces of white-yellowish primer appear on the inside of the object. There is a red-orange band around the edge. According to Lothrop 1926: Nicoya polychrome ware, silhouette jaguar, type B. Cultural significance: Bonilla et al. (1987) refer to this group only under the type Jicote Policromo, variedad felino (1350-1000d.C.). Their decorations have many similarities with the Pataky Policromo (1350-1000d.C.) and Granada Policromo (1350-1000d.C.) groups. (Künne 2004)
