Tlatilco Tripod Dish with Four Figures - PF.0734, Origin: Tlatilco, Mexico, Circa: 900 BC to 500 BC, Dimensions: 7" (17.8cm) high x 8.5" (21.6cm) wide, Catalogue: V2, Collection: Pre-Columbian, Style: Tlatilco, Medium: Terracotta. Four figures hover expectantly on the outer rim of this vessel; directly in front of each is a hollow depression formed by one of the legs. In the center a man wearing a tall pyramidal hat waves his arms as if engaged in a ceremony. There is an air of anticipation about this piece, a feeling that some peculiar ritual is about to reach its high point. If we turn away for even a moment, we might miss the climax.
