  macora. 
  A 
  third 
  type, 
  known 
  as 
  junco 
  hats, 
  is 
  woven 
  in 
  the 
  

   same 
  region. 
  

  

  Wool 
  hats 
  are 
  made 
  in 
  various 
  parts 
  of 
  the 
  Sierra, 
  known 
  under 
  the 
  

   generic 
  name 
  of 
  monteras. 
  The 
  form 
  varies 
  considerably 
  but 
  all 
  are 
  

   of 
  Colonial 
  origin. 
  

  

  Pottery. 
  — 
  The 
  pottery 
  industry, 
  although 
  highly 
  developed 
  among 
  

   the 
  Quechua, 
  is 
  fairly 
  localized. 
  According 
  to 
  Castro 
  Pozo, 
  pottery 
  is 
  

   made

  The 
  most 
  common 
  forms 
  include 
  ollas, 
  bowls, 
  dishes, 
  cups, 
  small 
  and 
  

   large 
  jugs, 
  basins, 
  trays, 
  and 
  the 
  purely 
  decorative 
  pieces 
  in 
  animal 
  

   and 
  human 
  representations. 
  Both 
  men 
  and 
  women 
  make 
  pottery, 
  

   but 
  the 
  majority 
  of 
  potters 
  are 
  men. 
  

  

  Various 
  types 
  of 
  clay 
  are 
  used, 
  depending 
  on 
  what 
  is 
  locally 
  avail- 
  

   able, 
  mixed 
  with 
  water. 
  Sand 
  is 
  the 
  most 
  common 
  tempering 
  

   medium. 
  Generally, 
  the 
  walls 
  of 
  the 
  vessel 
  are 
  built 
  onto 
  a 
  flat 
  or 
  

   concave 
  disk 
  in 
  concentric 
  fillets. 
  A 
  wet 
  cloth 
  and 
  scraping 
  instru- 
  

   ments 
  are 
  applied 
  to 
  smooth 
  the 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  vessel. 
  After 
  drying, 
  

   the 
  slip 
  is 
  put 
  on 
  and 
  the 
  vessel 
  is 
  painted. 
  In 
  southern 
  Peru 
  as 
  well 
  

   as 
  in 
  central 
  Peru, 
  the 
  usual 
  colors 
  are 
  red 
  and 
  white 
  on 
  orange 
  or 
  

   buff. 
  Firing 
  is 
  often 
  done 
  in 
  special 
  ovens 
  or 
  manure 
  fires. 
  A 
  large 
  

   part 
  of 
  the 
  pottery 
  produced 
  is 
  unpainted. 
  

  

  Some 
  pottery 
  is 
  made 
  in 
  molds. 
  In 
  this 
  connection, 
  the 
  production 
  

   of 
  large 
  quantities 
  of 
  black 
  ware, 
  Chimu 
  pottery, 
  on 
  the 
  Coast 
  deserves 
  

   special 
  mention. 
  

  

  Roof 
  tiles 
  and 
  bricks. 
  — 
  Roof 
  tiles 
  are 
  produced 
  by 
  the 
  thousands 
  

   around 
  Pucara, 
  and 
  in 
  other 
  regions 
  on 
  a 
  smaller 
  scale. 
  The 
  tech- 
  

   nique 
  is 
  simple. 
  The 
  clay 
  is 
  turned 
  for 
  8 
  to 
  12 
  hours, 
  and 
  then 
  is 
  put 
  

   into 
  convex 
  molds, 
  which 
  are 
  baked 
  in 
  specially 
  constructed 
  ovens. 
  

   Bricks 
  are 
  still 
  made 
  for 
  church 
  construction 
  in 
  a 
  few 
  centers. 
  

  

  Gourds. 
  — 
  Central 
  Peru, 
  especially 
  Ayacucho, 
  Huancayo, 
  and 
  the 
  

   North 
  Coast, 
  are 
  centers 
  of 
  the 
  gourd 
  industry. 
  The 
  finest 
  gourds, 
  

   incised 
  in 
  a 
  two-color 
  cameo 
  technique, 
  come 
  from 
  Ayacucho. 
  These 
  

   show 
  minutely 
  worked 
  scenes 
  from 
  domestic 
  life, 
  complete 
  panoramas 
  

   of 
  fiestas, 
  historic 
  incidents, 
  etc. 
  In 
  some 
  cases,
