This figure was acquired from a Californian collection.  The collector travelled to archaeological digs throughout Central America and Peru over a forty-year period of time.

 

This piece was identified from Jalisco in or near a shaft tomb . . . a few miles from the state of Nayarit.  Circa late formative or early classic periods.

 

It has a lot of similarities with the Chavin civilization of Peru’s North Coast.  Such similarities carried on through the Salinar, Mochica, Recuay and Chimu civilizations.

 

The statue is in near perfect condition.
