Comments:  The provenance of this piece is known thanks to a photo kept at the Historical Archives of the National Anthropology Museum, box #12, no. 611. The photo shows the missing part: the left hand and foot. The exhibited piece has been restored on the same side, confirming that it is the same piece. It is possible that this piece belonged to the Heredia Collection. The huipil dress indicates that it must represent a woman. Similar pieces published in Caso and Bernal 1952: 281-281, figs. 428, 429, 430.
