Key:  MFVV 274
Actual Location:  Museum für Völkerkunde, Vienna, Austria.
Collection:  Manuel Ortega Reyes
Registration:  Ausst. Nr. 274
Provenance:  Unknown
Chronology:  Pitao 350 - 500 AD
  Click to view Chronology
Reference:  von Müller 1998 [1864]: 82; Die Mexikanish Sammlungen de Museums für Völkerkunde, Vienna, 1965, plate 19.
Comments:  The figure is missing the pectoral and the part of the mouth mask. He is holding a rope in the right hand, but, as concerns the object in the left hand, there was not enough detail in the photograph to determine its shape. The human figure has the same posture as pieces BM 1946/AM 19/6 and MFVB 28354, so it could be about self-sacrifice of the penis with the rope he is holding.
Glyphs:  Glyph C in the headdress.
