ocarina (Wind Musical Instrument)

Clay ocarina. A long mouthpiece with windway and windcutter widens into a round body with a small oblong outcropping on each side and an elaborate necklace ring at the top back. Four pitch holes are bored into the top of the ocarina through to its hollow centre. The top and back are decorated with incised patterns of lines, dots and triangles. The instrument stands on three conical legs.
