Incense burner

15th century wall tomb in the north wall of the chancel of Strade Dominican Friary (MA070-067001-), Co. Mayo.  Described by archaeologist, John Hunt as; 'a gabled tomb niche, with an elaborate flamboyant traceried canopy. Below this, forming a tomb-front, are two panels boldly carved with decorated ogival niches beneath elaborate foliated crocketing and pinnacle work. In the first three of these are represented the Three Kings of the East, Caspar, Melchior & Balthazar, crowned & bearing their gifts of gold, frankincense & myrrh. In the fourth niche is Christ, King and Judge. In the second panel, the ogee heads are treated as a single canopy, the pinnacles being supported on corbels carved as worshipping angels issuant from clouds with wings displayed. Under this arcading are disposed four figures. The dexter, presumably the donor or commemorated man.   The other three figures, represent an archbishop with cross-staff in the act of blessing, St Peter with two keys & a book, & St Paul with a sword & a book'.

Arabic incense burner

"Incense burner with a decorated lid featuring a skeleton figure with hands on its waist, with ribs depicted in detail (achieved through grooves and molded elements). It likely references the god Mictlantecuhtli, known in other Mesoamerican cultures as the “Lord of Mictlán” or “Lord of the Land of the Dead.” Its Maya counterpart is Ah Puch, also known as Ah Cimih, Kisin (“The Stinking One”), or Yum-Kimil. In Maya mythology, he is the god and ruler of Mitnal, the underworld."
