Pendant depicting a standing male figure with clenched fists that are deliberately oversized. The body has a massive build, emphasized by a double-row belt and leg wraps. The face, with its mouth open to reveal fangs, conveys the figure’s transformation from man to jaguar. Two spiral-decorated ear ornaments frame the face. A single loop is attached to the back, showing signs of wear from being worn. The pendant is accompanied by a necklace of later origin. Gold, lost-wax casting; necklace composed of stone and metal beads, of later origin.
