Three-legged, flat-bottomed bowl. The object has a straight wall decorated with carvings and engravings. The hollow legs have small, round openings, rattle balls and engraved decorations. The vessel was smoothed on both sides, slurried, primed and highly polished. The monochrome ceramic has a red-brown base colour. There are three rectangular panels with incised decoration on the vessel wall. They show vertical line bundles, hatched triangles and dots. At the base there are several incisions arranged in a linear pattern. The legs are decorated with two pairs of crossed lines. The interior of the object remains undecorated. According to Lothrop 1926: chocolate ware and black ware. Cultural significance: the date of the group requires further documentation. Lothrop links the type with his black ware, which also includes objects from the Murillo Aplicado (1520-1350d.C.) and Castillo Esgrafiado (1550-1200d.C.) groups. He associates the vessels with the black pottery reported by Oviedo, Castañeda and López de Velasco from the island of Chira in the Gulf of Nicoya (Lothrop 1926: 40). (Künne 2004)
