An Actuncan bowl with flared sides, basal flange, ring base, direct rim, and rounded lip. A polychrome design of two serpentine, well-endowed jaguars alternate with two large Kan crosses in a band above the flange. The basal flange itself (3.5 cm in width) is decorated with seven bisected Kan crosses, or portal motifs, arranged in alternating orientations. These motifs are red (10R 4/8) in color and are outlined in black (7.5R 2.5/0). The vessel was inverted over the skull of the individual.
