Item Details

Description

Title: FINE MAYAN FIGURINE - PRECOLUMBIAN

Date/Period: ca. 600 to 950

Material: Jade

Size: 2" W x 3,5" H

Description: A finely carved, green jade figurine depicting a human figure standing. As was the custom, the Mayan artisan worked with the natural shape of the stone rather than lose any precious
surface area. A stunning example of rich blue/verdant hues, the jade is translucent, drilled for suspension.
Jade was revered by the Maya not only for its beauty, but also because it had spiritual power - it was believed to be the embodiment of the wind and the “breath” that formed the Maya soul. In addition, scholars argue that its color was associated with water and vegetation. While the Maya used jade beads to create impressive jewelry, we also know that they placed jade beads in the mouths of the dead, perhaps as a means of
extending the circle of life. Furthermore, many scholars have argued that the demand for jadeite contributed to the rise of long distance trading networks as well as the rise of urban centers in ancient Mesoamerica.
