Reference:  König and Kröfges 2001: 99
Comments:  Although this object is not an "urn" we include it here because it is a type of effigy with a container. The bird sitting on top of this box is most probably a turkey (guajalote in Mexico) evident by the absence of feathers on the head and a fleshy protuberance that hangs from the top of its beak called a snood. The head of the bird has been perforated, perhaps for purposes of adding additional decoration or to place a cord through the object.
Glyphs:  The glyph 6 Jaguar is inscribed in white on the front of the box. The glyph for "cloud" on one side of the bird.
