We see a seated man in a trance, touching with his hands a somewhat strange-looking headdress with which accessories for chewing coca leaves are attached to the back of the man's head. One container is for the coca leave, and above it, two lime containers, because the intoxicating alkaloid of the coca leaf only dissolves in combination with lime. Today the chewing of coca leaves is still part of the preparation for a ritual, the ritual purification, before the actual ritual begins. The ceramics show very nicely the mixture of different style elements from Sicá, Chimú and Inca culture. The shape of the eyes points to Sicán, the stirrup spout and the monkey on it to Chimú, while the face with the pointed nose is typical of the Inca.
