This is a wonderful Aztec or Mayan mask from the pre-Columbian era (before 1492). The terra cotta mask shows the face of a male deity. The mask has decorative grooves to each side of the nose, detailed teeth, a jutting chin, and a small plate covering part of the mouth opening.

Circa pre-Columbian era (before 1492).

Approximately 5-3/4" in height and 5-3/4" in width and 4-1/4" in depth.

Clay terracotta pottery.

Two holes.

None.

This is from an indigenous, ethnographic and tribal items collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. COLL MFJJX13 LBBEJX4/13 SLEEJJX7/14

7 (Very Fine): The mask shows some aging but is in wonderful overall condition.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
