Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Mayan Territories, Late Classic Period, ca. 600 to 900 CE. This is a lovely ceremonial vessel decorated with registers and panels all around, consisting of chief or casique figures alternating with panels of painted designs. The cylinder stands raised on three tripod rattle feet. It has a strong painted surface with bright orange, dark red, and black details. Size: 5.5" W x 7.45" H (14 cm x 18.9 cm)

Cylinder vessels like these seem, from residue analysis, to have been used for drinking chocolate, a hugely popular and ritual practice amongst the Maya, especially Mayan elite.
