Item Details

Description

Title: OLMEC JADE FIGURINE - PRECOLUMBIAN

Date/Period: ca. 1000 to 400 BCE.

Materials: Jade

Size: Size: 2" W x 3.5" H

Provenance: This spectacular Olmec jade figurine represent a lord with incised motifs and a deity on the belly. It?s a one of a kind striking example of Olmec artistry. It measures 2" x 3.5".Olmec figurines are archetypical figurines produced by the Formative Period inhabitants of Mesoamerica. While not all of these figurines were produced in the Olmec heartland, they bear the hallmarks and motifs of Olmec culture. While the extent of Olmec control over the areas beyond their heartland is not yet known, Formative Period figurines with Olmec motifs were widespread in the centuries from 1000 to 500 BC, showing a consistency of style and subject throughout nearly all of Mesoamerica.Many other Olmec figurines combined human and animal features.Although figurines showing such combinations of features are generally termed "transformation figures", some researchers argue that they represent humans in animal masks or animal suits, while others state that they likely represent shamans.
