content: Notes by the collector, Emilienne Ireland: Low-fired clay, red slip exterior, interior painted with a mixture of juice of a vine, soot, and water. A full-size griddle would be at least 55 cm. Smaller griddles like this specimen are convenient when a family wants to be able to prepare fresh manioc bread during a day trip to collect salt plants, turtle eggs, or engage in some other harvesting activity at some distance away from the village. See note for E 435329.
