Female Figurine, AD 300-600. Mesoamerica, Veracruz, Huastec, Panuco Style. Ceramic, pigment; overall: 10.6 x 0.5 x 1.9 cm (4 3/16 x 3/16 x 3/4 in.). Clay was a major medium in ancient Veracruz, located on Mexicos Gulf Coast, and artists used it to create huge quantities of sculpture ranging from small whistles and figurines like this one to impressive, life-size figural effigies. Meanings are often obscure, but small objects were important enough to have been deposited in tombs and buried offerings.
