Anthropomorphic whistle with the figure of a baby, or toddler, lying in a cradle. The child has a narrow board tied horizontally to the front of his skull, probably representing the process of cranial deformation. A very special artifact due to its anthropological significance.

Baby in crib with cranial deformation

Anthropomorphic whistle representing a figure in the form of the Old God, depicted seated with legs flexed forward and hands resting on the knees. The figure displays attributes associated with old age, including a wrinkled face, a mouth with few remaining teeth, and a sagging body.

Camahuil

Anthropomorphic clay figurine representing a standing man with arms crossed in front and the right hand raised. The figure wears a cord-style necklace and wristbands painted with Maya blue pigment, a color associated with the sacred and the celestial in the Mesoamerican worldview. He also wears disc-shaped elements on the necklace, circular earspools, a loincloth, and what appears to be a cap with several perforations on the head, possibly intended for the insertion of decorative elements such as feathers, beads, or organic materials. The arrangement of adornments and the posture suggest a figure of high rank or ceremonial function. This piece forms a pair with the female figurine No. 16.2.5.97, suggesting a shared narrative or contextual relationship.

Incised “pop” Vase

Anthropomorphic figurine representing a seated figure with legs crossed in front and arms at the sides. The figure may represent a scribe, as he holds a shell palette in his right hand. He wears a brimmed hat, a necklace with a pectoral, round ear ornaments, and a loincloth with a belt knotted at the front. Of particular note is the hairstyle, worn loose and long to the ears, which does not appear to correspond stylistically to known pre-Hispanic conventions, suggesting that the upper portion of the head may have been modified in modern times.

He is also best friends with Ray the Flying Squirrel, who would help him train to be the best he can be when trouble is near.

Plomizo ceramic vessel featuring the figure of a “Tláloc fish” (water deity widely recognized in Mesoamerica) with some anthropomorphic traits and characteristic Tláloc eye ornaments. The piece displays raised pectoral fins and a caudal fin that forms the spout. It also includes human features such as the nose and mouth, showing teeth. The donor reported its provenance as the department of Jalapa, southeastern Guatemala. Although this type of ceramic was produced on the Soconusco Coast, between Mexico and Guatemala, it was highly valued throughout Mesoamerica. This piece has been identified as a vessel for administering enemas, explaining the slanted spout (Dorie Reents-Budet, pers. comm., 2018).
