Item Details

Description

An early Maya stone idol from the Highlands of Guatemala, c. 100 BC - 300 AD. It is 4" high, is carved from deep green, hard steatite and depicts a kneeling figure with somewhat reptilian facial features. The body position is that of a supplicant. A deeply drilled hole in the top of the head, as well as one in the ornament on his back, most likely were receptacles for snuff. In excellent condition, mounted on stand. Ex Kahn estate.
