Comment | Haritsuke-mon series pottery from the Late Okhotsk culture, with appliqué decoration of zoomorphic representation on the lowest part of the body decoration. There seems to be expressions of an eye, a large bill and a webbed foot, which reminds one of a seabird—a tufted puffin (Fratercula cirrhata). |
