For the peoples in northeastern South America the techniques used to decorate their pottery were related in some way to how they decorated their own bodies. The engravings represent scarring on the skin, the color designs reflect the custom of painting the face and body, and the applications of pieces of clay would be jewels and other fixtures. Like the pieces of baked clay, the human body was conceived as a contribution to aesthetic expression.
