This is a nice little Ameca-Etzatlan style Jalisco figure of a woman. She has broad shoulders and high-seated breasts that are typical for this type of figure, with nice burnishing throughout. See Figure 11, page 96, of Townsend's "Ancient West Mexico" for a processional group of similar small figures of this type.
AGE: 350 BC - 200 AD CONDITION: Left leg reattached with loss to the back of the right leg and right buttock, although it displays well from the front and sides. Despite the damage, this is a good piece for the money -- small Jalisco figures are uncommon relative to Colima and Nayarit. DIMENSIONS: 3.75" tall (9.53 cm) |
