Polychrome Ceramic Tripod Cup From The Mesoamerican Tradition
Polychrome ceramic bowl resting on three feet, decorated with a set of red, ochre, and cream geometric motifs applied to the interior and exterior of the container. The shapes used—vertical bands, dotted lines, wavy lines—evoking the productions of pre-Columbian cultures of Mesoamerica, notably the Maya or neighboring ones. The object, restored with visible breaks, testifies to the ritual or domestic uses of the Classic period (300 to 900 AD). This type of bowl, often found in ceremonial sites, was intended for service or offerings.
