In the late Pre-Classic and early Classic periods, major cultures developed in western Mexico. Once mistakenly called Tarascan, they are now referred to by the names of the Mexican states in which the sites are located: Colima, Jalisco, and Nayarit. No major architectural sites were constructed, and little stone sculpture was made, but some of the most accomplished Mesoamerican clay effigy pots and figurines were produced. Jalisco statuary, while less vibrantly colored than Colima or Nayarit pieces, tends to be the most stylistically bold, as is evident in this cute little effigy figure.
AGE: Late Pre-Classic to early Classic Period, circa 300 B.C. to 300 A.D. CONDITION: Very good. Some slight wear, but overall no appreciable damage. DIMENSIONS: About 2.25" tall |
