Mocahua
Mine
This mocahua is used to serve masato. Also includes examples from the kitchenware collection, with M- codes and their own capacities; these are not the same objects as the food-atlas photographs. Also includes Annex B examples with separate B- codes and larger/smaller capacities transcribed from their tables.

* M-016 · Original kitchenware-atlas code 016. The M- prefix distinguishes this collection from food codes. Recorded volume: 0.33 L, displayed as 330 mL (1 L = 1000 mL). This is vessel capacity, not food weight. The accompanying “con info” document records 333 mL; the measurement table’s rounded volume is retained here. Field inventory: identical original photograph bytes identify the same documented object; Diameter: 12.5 cm; Height: 5.0 cm; Volume: 333 mL. The final measurement-table capacity is retained where it differs.
* M-017 · Original kitchenware-atlas code 017. The M- prefix distinguishes this collection from food codes. Recorded volume: 0.56 L, displayed as 560 mL (1 L = 1000 mL). This is vessel capacity, not food weight. The accompanying “con info” document records 557 mL; the measurement table’s rounded volume is retained here. Field inventory: identical original photograph bytes identify the same documented object; Diameter: 14.5 cm; Height: 6 cm; Volume: 557 mL. The final measurement-table capacity is retained where it differs.
* I-049 · I-049 is a site index for this supplementary inventory, not an original photograph or participant code. Transcribed measurements: Diameter: 13.5 cm; Height: 5.5 cm; Volume: 444 mL. Capacities are displayed in mL using 1 L = 1000 mL; they are not food grams.
* B-05 · B-05 is a site index for object 5 in Annex B, not an original photo code.
