Narino Lime Jar

A beautifully decorated lime jar originally from the Narino area of Colombia, ca. 850 – 1250 AD, but found in Panama, where it ended up as trade goods. Its owner probably used it as a medicine container, as they didn't have coca in that area. The elongated vessel is 3-3/4" high, and is perforated to attach a cover. From great historical collection.
