Maya Peten Polychrome Cylinder w/ Lord & Figures

Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $3000**

Pre-Columbian, Mexico and northern Central America, Mayan Territories, Peten Region, Late Classic, ca. 550 to 900 CE. A stunning Maya vessel with a trio of figures, including a high-ranking lord or ruler figure standing with an animalistic headdress and staff, one hand forming a gesture that is directed towards the person standing before him. These two other figures are likely lower ranking ballplayers or warriors ñ one presents an object, perhaps a knife, to the lord. This significant scene conveys a sense of somber ritual and may recreate a story from Maya mythology or history. Extraordinary ceramic vessels like this example were gifted to elite individuals, akin to the gifts exchanged between high profile dignitaries today. Size: 6" Diameter x 6" H (15.2 cm x 15.2 cm)

Vessels were a functional gift, created by artist/scribes who came from elite families and who took pains to recreate the stories of Mayan mythology and religion as well as to depict royal and godly personages in their artwork. Scholars have painstakingly worked to decipher the meaning of the iconography and glyphs painted on Mayan pottery and we know much more about them than we did even twenty years ago, however the full meaning of this one is uncertain, it certainly provides insight into the grandeur of clothing and ornamentation of the ruling class!
