Whistle; vessel flute
Whistle, vessel flute. A clay vessel in the form of a head and shoulder representation of a figure in a cloak, possibly holding a baby. The lower surface is flattened, allowing the instrument to stand. Two finger holes are positioned on the lower side faces behind the elbows with a smaller hole above the hole at the left elbow. A paper label adhered to the back reads: Pescadillo (Manabi).
