Description:
Bowl with circular flat base, slightly convex body and thickened outer rim. White slip on the inside and outside of the piece (except the base). Zoomorphic decoration both inside and outside the bowl. On the interior walls the decoration is divided into elliptical panels separated by curvilinear bands of purple and red. The design is not visible on the central panel due to its poor state of conservation. On the exterior walls zoomorphic designs, possibly agoutis (Dasyprocta). On the double edge a continuous black line with t-shaped designs.
