Possibly over 1,500 years old, this whistling vessel is attributed to the Maya culture of Mesoamerica, and is from what is now northern Guatemala or southern Campeche, Mexico. It is made of ceramic and features two cylindrical chambers joined by a central bridge, decorated with modeled figures including the "Principal Bird Deity", a kneeling figure, and a climbing animal. It measures 30.2 × 19.7 × 13.3 cm (11 7/8 × 7 3/4 × 5 1/4 in). This artifact is now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art
