Large Mayan Mosaic Mask (400 BC - 200 AD)

Item Details

Description

Large Mayan Mosaic Mask (400 BC - 200 AD)

A Noble Shaman mask from a Preclassic kings burial. The headdress is adorned with two King vultures and a dangling fish. The nose is an upturned frog, and the ears are the eyes and snouts of stargazer jaguars. 

The mask has the features of the deceased, whose contours were idealized to represent divinity. Jade masks, for the Maya, had to transcend into eternity. The piece also has shell and obsidian or hematite; also associated with the divine. Two spirals were placed beside the mouth to simulate the last breath of the sovereign, its open mouth denotes the transition of the ruler to the supernatural world, while the extended tongue emphasizes a clean relationship with the Gods through bloodletting.
