Key:  MCO 10-140700
Actual Location:  Museum of Cultures of Oaxaca, City of Oaxaca, Mexico (exhibited).
Registration:  INAH 10-140700
Provenance:  Courtyard of tomb 103, Monte Albán, Oaxaca.
Measurements:  27 cm.
Color:  Grey clay
Chronology:  Peche 500 - 600 AD
  Click to view Chronology
Reference:  Caso and Bernal 1952: 22, fig. 13.
Comments:  Caso and Bernal excavated five of these boxes during the Sixth period (1937). The boxes were found in a row, in the courtyard of tomb 103. Caso and Bernal thought that there were lids for these boxes, but there is no evidence. One is exhibited at the Museum of Cultures of Oaxaca and the other seems to be part of the Rufino Tamayo Collection, although there is no explanation of why a piece from an excavation ended up in private hands. The boxes were broken, although the piece at the Rufino Tamayo Museum has been restored.
Glyphs:  The glyph for corn field decorates the four sides of the box.
