Description

Clay ocarina, one end wide and with a centre cleft, narrowing toward a round stem and mouthpiece with a windway. At the midpoint of the body is a high protrusion with a hole bored through its centre, possibly for use as a necklace ring. Four pitch holes are bored into the hollow chamber of the body and sit to either side of the protrusion, with a larger rectangular hole (a windcutter) bored on the underside. Around the pitch holes the body is decorated with fine patterns of incised lines and dots.
