This mug is designed as a mask version of the Creature From the Black Lagoon, and was issued in several color-ways, including a Creature Glaze, Lava Glaze, Atlantis Glaze, and Bone Glaze.
From Omar Girona:
"Well if you believe in such things, very little equipment was recovered from Site 9 of the ill-fated expedition in search of the lost city except for this peculiar mask. This celebratory mask was worn by a young attendant to the storyteller at a lagoon where the waters flow dark as obsidian during festivals and high events in the lost city. The most notable festival was the celebration of the rising of the Black Moon. The skull looks remarkably human-like, but even experts of the Explorer’s Club are at a loss of what the face of the Akolouthos looks like as the mask has formed a permanent bond with the skull. According to the Explorer’s Club resident South American Cryptologist, this mask has similar markings to the Brazilian Lara or pays tribute to a lost creature of the black lagoon. Notice the large eyes and the pronounced scales on the face. Perhaps to see underwater or maybe in the far reaches of outer space.
Again, if you believe in such things…"
