This bowl is very similar in concept to artifact number 73: the exterior is decorated with the lotemla wohanapa (all different kinds of feathers hang down) motif. This band constitutes a prayer that all kinds of clouds may gather together to make a cloudy day and produce rain. The interior of the bowl has a red wetolianne (zigzag) band that represents either alialaye (waves) or citola (the water snake), both of which are water symbols that are reinforced by the large, elaborate rain bird motif painted below the double horizontal band.
