Description

Clay ocarina. The body of the instrument is oblong with slightly curving sides and a protruding mouthpiece attached to one end, along with three triangular projections, two of which contain necklace holes. Through the mouthpiece is bored a windway that opens into a windcutter on the top of the ocarina. At the opposite end is a rimmed hole bored into the instrument’s hollow body, as well as two more pitch holes on the underside. Much of the instrument is decorated with encircling incised lines and dots.
