Comments
This tecomate is decorated with pre-fired incisions that start below a circumferential line surrounding the rim, which has been thickened on the interior side. These lines run vertical to the base, in a manner representative of a squash. The exterior surfaces and the base are slipped with Joventud Red. Differential firing occurs in a black (2.5YR 2.5/0) color. Thickness of the walls is 4.5 cm. This vessel was found beneath a larger vessel within Burial 1-28.
