- Sacerdote incoronato che regge una testa di giaguaro e una conchiglia Terracotta beige e arancione, resti di pigmenti bianchi e tracce localizzate di bitume, frammento ricomposto. Veracruz, Messico, ca. 450–700 d.C. 42 x 27,5 x 23 cm Provenienza: Asta Me Boscher, Studer & Fromentin, Parigi, 2 febbraio 2001, lotto n. 143. Il volto presenta un’espressione allegra, sottolineata dalle arcate sopracciliari ben delineate e dalla bocca socchiusa. La corona, gli orecchini circolari e l’ornamento nasale suggeriscono uno status di rilievo all’interno della comunità. Due pannelli con motivi incisi incorniciano la testa e conferiscono ampiezza alla sua presentazione. La testa di giaguaro e la conchiglia potrebbero indicare un sacerdote durante una cerimonia. In questa cultura, la conchiglia veniva utilizzata come strumento di richiamo prima o durante le cerimonie.
