- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, West Mexico, Colima, ca. 300 BCE to 300 CE; Central Mexico, Teotihuacan, ca. 3rd to 7th century CE; Gulf Coast Mexico, Veracruz (Vera Cruz), ca. 3rd to 7th century CE. A neat gathering of 7 hand-built pottery artifacts from across ancient Mexico. First are two large Colima figures: a mother with a child on her back, and a nude female standing nude with outstretched arms. Next is a Colima zoomorphic head with large eyes and perky ears. A Colima earspool features a floral motif on the circular face, and a large, spouted bowl was perhaps used as a baby feeder. A petite Teotihuacan head bears slit-form eyes beneath a broad headdress with a conical frontal ornament. A Veracruz head features smooth surfaces and a surprised expression beneath the elongated, tab-shaped brow. Size of largest (Colima mother and child): 3.6" W x 7.75" H (9.1 cm x 19.7 cm)
Provenance: private Fayetteville, Arkansas, USA collection; ex-Dr. David Harner collection, Springdale, Arkansas, USA, acquired between the 1950s and 1960s
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
