content: Notes by the collector, Emilienne Ireland: Low-fired clay, exterior painted in geometric fishbone design (kupátonábo), interior painted with a mixture of juice of a vine, soot, and water. "Canoe container" (ítsakána) Note that interior black paint is chipping off. This would not happen in the Wauja community, as the pot quickly acquires an all-over black color and smooth surface texture as it is used for cooking.
