Image Missing: Hearst Museum object titled Beer cup, museum number 16-8465, described as Wooden corn beer goblet (Kero) with carved and painted design, flat base. Old split repaired with cord. Diameter 4.75 inches, height 5.5 inches. Probably from the 17th century. Under the colonial system these were made and used only by Indians in rites of the native religion. They were made to order for caciques who officiated at the ceremonies; they were made and used in identical pairs. Chicha, corn beer, was the liquid drunk from them and sprinkled on the ground or on the votive offerings.
