Large, three-legged bowl with an extending wall and rounded base. Each leg has a narrow, vertical opening and a rattle ball. The ceramic was smoothed on both sides, slurried, primed, painted and highly polished. The primer and paint are slightly eroded. The restored object has several fractures and material replacements. The ceramic has a white-yellowish base colour, which was painted red, orange, brown and black. The object has a black band around the rim. On the inside of the vessel wall are three medium-sized, avimorphic creatures whose bodies were designed as a rhombus. The motifs appear to be repeated as beak-shaped vessel legs. A two-headed figure appears in the base of the bowl, depicting the same avimorphic creature. It seems to allude to three wall-mounted, round discs, whose swastika-like motifs repeat the down-to-earth theme in an abbreviated form. The colours of all the figures correspond with each other. On the outside of the vessel wall there is a high, circumferential frieze. It shows angular elements, dots and vertical lines that lie between two red, horizontal bands. The base is decorated with a circumferential red band. According to Lothrop 1926: highland polychrome ware, plumed serpent, type B. Cultural significance: this type was produced exclusively in the south of the Gran Nicoya region. It stands out due to the colour range of its decoration, a fine line and the depiction of moving figures. The pottery is mainly known from burials. (Künne 2004)
