Peruvian Hand-painted clay ocarina, a type of vessel flute.

Ocarinas are ancient wind musical instruments with origins in Central and South America dating back about 12,000 years. They are typically made from clay or ceramic and feature various designs, such as the geometric patterns and a bull or buffalo skull motif seen in the image. The instrument produces sound when air is blown into the mouthpiece and different pitches are achieved by covering and uncovering the finger holes. This specific style, often called a "Peruvian pendant" ocarina, is a popular, functional souvenir found at historical sites in the Andes.
