Mexiko, Guerrero, Mezcala Tempelmodell, ca. 500 - 200 v.Chr. grauer Kalkstein Sockel Über den archäologischen Kontext ist nur wenig bekannt, ebenso existieren bislang kaum Hinweise auf erhaltene Architektur in der betreffenden Region. Modelle mit Säulen könnten jedoch auf Gebäude mit Steinsäulen verweisen, wie sie etwa aus Cuetlajuchitlán bekannt sind. Mezcala-Architekturmodelle werden allgemein als Tempeldarstellungen interpretiert. In Fällen, in denen sie in Gräbern deponiert wurden, wird zudem angenommen, dass sie als symbolische Eingänge in die Geisterwelt oder als Wohnstätten für die Verstorbenen gedient haben könnten. Mass: M: 12,5 cm x 10,5 cm Provenance: Hans-Henning Strumpf, Sankt Goarshausen, Germany Lit.: Gay, Carlo, Mezcala Stone Sculpture, The Human Figure, Greenwich 1967, p. 37, ill. 56 This object is subject to the Cultural Heritage Protection Act. Export documents are required for export (subjected to a fee).
