The first of the Western Village cultures in Pre-Columbian Mexico has been found at Chupícuaro, in the state of Guanajuato. It was a highly accomplished culture and it is dated at about 500 BC. Chupícuaro figurines fall into the category of “gingerbread figures”. They look as if they had been cut out of a flat sheet of clay on which facial features and adornments were applied as separate pellets to the body. Typical of these figurines, this piece has long, slanted and coffee bean eyes, and a pronounced aquiline nose. It has a detailed headdress, earrings, necklace and a loin-cloth like garment around the waist. Rosettes are worn on its feet. These exquisitely modeled figures are made of buff-colored clay, have short arms and are usually small, as an inch high, while some reached up to 12 inches. They were placed as burial offerings. This is a really nice little artifact. A cute little gem for the pre-Columbian art enthusiast. Little box included for added cuteness and display.
