Description:
|
This unusual plumbate cacao vessel is divided into three quadrants. Each quadrant contains an elaborate design of semi-abstract faces and zoomorphic (supernatural entities) on the vessel's neckband and wide shoulder band. Between each quadrant, the Maya "kin" crosses hold a ceramic sphere to create a rattling sound.
