This bowl from Ayacucho is decorated with the triple recurved ray motif (a) and the banded rectangle motif (b), probably derived from Nasca's Humped Animal or Monkey theme (Knobloch 2005:133, Figure 11). The two motifs appear early in Ayacucho's Chakipampa pottery style and serve as excellent diagnostics of Middle Horizon Epoch 1a and early 1b.
