Key:  SOLO 1 Actual Location:  Unknown Collection:  Fernando Sologuren #481 Provenance:  Huitzo, Etla, Oaxaca. Measurements:  28 x 16.5 cm. Color:  Dark brown. Chronology:  Xoo 600 - 800 AD   Click to view Chronology Reference:  Drawing by Sabino Soriano in the unpublished work of Manuel Martínez Gracida, second volume "Wood Statues" 1910: plate 78; Peñafiel 1893: plate 23; Bauer's photo circa 1900, in König and Kröfges 2001: 131, S14.

The same author also draws our attention to the fact that the piece looks old because it is badly gnawn by moths.

Key:  MFR 1473 Actual Location:  Frissell Museum, Mitla, Mexico. Collection:  Howard Leigh Registration:  MFR 1473 Provenance:  Mixteca Alta? Measurements:  36 x 26.5 cm. Color:  Red, white, blue and yellow paint. Chronology:  Xoo 600 - 800 AD?   Click to view Chronology Comments:  Paddock says in a letter to Philippa Shaplin (30/04/76) that this piece was carrying a vessel on its back and was used as a brazier. He also speculates that it comes from the Mixteca Alta, so it is possible that it was not made by the Zapotecs. Paddock believes that the piece was painted after it was fired, just like the piece that was found by Bernal in Magdalena Jicotlán (MNA 6-7892). The human figure has a jaguar in the headdress and some element was hanging from the ear pieces, but are now missing. See CBE 56 for a similar image of a jaguar on the headdress.
