Comments:  In September 1894 Martínez Gracida found this piece in a grave next to three other identical pieces. Soon after he sold all four objects: one to Luis Reynaud, two to Lucio Smith, and one to Eduard Seler along with the rest of his collection. The object in the Peabody was a donation from the AMNH in 1929, and is the urn that Seler purchased from Martínez Gracida in 1895. Today there are two artefacts identical to the one at the Peabody Museum in the Smithsonian Institution but they are not as complete (see SMI 198426 and SMI 198427). The pieces in the Smithsonian come from Lucio Smith via E. W. Nelson. The fourth piece, the urn purchased by Luis Reynaud, ended up in the Bellon collection (see NMAI 180086). Glyphs:  The epsilon glyph hangs from the ears. Glyph C in the headdress.
