Jalisco Statuette of a Standing Man - PF.0863,Origin: Western Mexico,Circa: 300 BC to 300 AD,Dimensions: 4.75" (12.1cm) high x 2.25" (5.7cm) wide,Collection: Pre-Columbian,Style: Jalisco,Medium: Terracotta. What an odd little person this is! Legs spread wide, as if saddled upon an imaginary horse. Resting precariously on his toes with a mysterious object balancd atop his head. Is he an initiate in some obscure Mesoamerican religios ritual or merely a participant in a funny game whose rules have long-since been forgotten?.
