This is a sculptural ceramic bottle with relief scenes referred to the Sacrifice Ceremony. At the top of the container lays Ai Apaec (so named by Rafael Larco, meaning "the maker” in Muchik language) is the Moche mythological personage characterized by a belt and ear ornaments with snake heads, fangs in his face, and a headdress that varies according to the context in which he is located as part of his quest. He is flanked by two lizards. The four sides of the piece modeled in the shape of a truncated pyramid are demarcated by two-headed snakes extending as vertical poles. The scenes and personages depicted on the sides are: Ai Apaec, holding a baton and a circular shield, wearing a feline headdress, necklace and belt snakes; an owl anthropomorphic with feline headdress, necklace and backflap beheading a prisoner who is sitting with his hands tied behind his back; a bird warrior with conical helmet with a crescent-shape element, holding a baton, shield and carrying the naked warrior's dress; and, an anthropomorphic feline with a feline headdress and crescent-shape ornament and backflap, holding a square shield and a club, and subjecting a captive.
