A very eroded and friable bowl with a rounded base, small flange, outflaring rim, and direct rounded lip. The thickness of the base is 0.68 cm. The slip is a light red (2.5YR 6/8) that coats a paste with small white inclusions and a very dark gray (2.5YR 3/0) core. The bowl was inverted over the head of an extended adult. This vessel was an heirloom Terminal KÕatabcheÕkÕax piece found in an Early NohalkÕax context.
