About the Item
15th Century or Earlier Redware Tangas, Marajoara culture, Marajo Island, Brazil

The holes at the corners are believed to be string holes, meant to attach the artifact to the body. These three are undecorated, yet have intriguing surface textures and shapes. They measure 6.25 to 7 inches wide (15.8 to 17.7 cm) and 8" to 8.5" high as based.
