This Tiquisate type female figure is 6" in height, portrayed seated and is elaborately adorned with the traditional large earspools, over-sized nose ornaments, lip plug, fancy necklace, and applique shoulder scarification. Hollow buff clay with great age patina and mineral deposits. Condition : Repaired from several pieces without restoration over the breaks. No new clay. Impressive figure that shows extremely well. A great addition to your collection. AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEED The ancient Maya were without doubt one of the most noteworthy and amazing civilizations of Mesoamerica. Their artistic genius, architectural accomplishments and scientific knowledge have garnered the admiration of the world for centuries. Maya culture is one of the most studied in Mesoamerica, yet its heritage continues to produce surprises, as its extent and richness to a large degree remains a secret hidden behind thick jungle veils. Many of the vessels made during the Late Classic period display representations of historical events, which were usually related to a ritual in which the Mayan elite participated.
