Object Type:
Urn
Place:
Lake Nicaragua, Ometepe Island, Rivas, Nicaragua, Central America
Accession Date:
1883
Notes:
From card: "Refer to #61712. This burial urn did not have a catalog number. Dr. Evans, Metcalf, and Phebus have determined that this piece has traits similar to that of #61712 as of this date, 15 Dec. 1965". Based on this note, it is possible (likely?) that this urn is not from the same accession or site as A61712-0, but rather has unknown provenance. Certainly, the ledger book and catalog cards both seem to indicate that there should only be one urn with catalog number A61712.
