It is a ceramic artwork in the Chancay culture, created around 1300 to 1500 by an unknown Peruvian artist. Usually used for storing water, which is crucial for survival in the dry desert climate where one resides. The Chancay culture is located in the central coastal region of Peru, where the climate is hot and dry, but there are some oases connected to distant areas of the Andes mountain range, allowing for communication with other cultures and communities, trading plants, food, and other agricultural products. On both sides of the neck are a pair of monkeys, both covering their mouths with their hands. The monkey's tail curves upwards and connects to the neck of the container.
