Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $300**

Pre-Columbian, South Coast Peru, Nazca, ca. 200 to 400 CE. A hand-built pottery bowl with a round but stable base, tall walls, and a flared rim surrounding the deep basin. The highly burnished, beige-slipped lower body is divided into four sections via a pair of intersecting lines, and the cream-slipped shoulder features a colorful register of twelve abstract trophy heads. Head-taking was a significant component of Nazca warfare and religious mythology. A warrior could increase his might and status by capturing prisoners for head-taking. Size: 5.2" W x 3.7" H (13.2 cm x 9.4 cm)

Provenance: ex-Hans Juergen Westermann collection, Germany, acquired before 1960
