Botijuela
Not on view
Called botijuela in Spanish but also known as bunga, its African name, this vessel can be used either by blowing across its top or as a percussion pot when slapped on the side. When it is blown across the top it may be called a botija; diferent notes are produced by covering a smaller hole in the side with the finger. The botijuela is used to accompany song (son) and dance (danzon).
