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.

Key:  YUAG 29.19.1958 Actual Location:  Yale University Art Gallery (lent by Fred Olsen). Collection:  Acquision 1903. Originally from Enrique Juan Palacios, Reg. #6 (INAH); Fred Olsen. Registration:  29.19.1958 (Eubanks gives number 1973.88.10. Why two numbers? Are there two pieces?) Provenance:  Unknown Measurements:  44.5 cm. Color:  Traces of paint. Chronology:  MA IIIB (Boos 1966b: 185, Eubanks 1999: 117); Xoo 600 - 800 AD   Click to view Chronology Reference:  Boos 1966b: 185, fig. 164; Eubanks 1999: 117-118, fig. 93. Comments:  This piece is one of a series. The total number of pieces in the series is unknown, but there are at least two. The other piece is published in an auction's catalog (Parke-Bennet Galleries, 23 May 1970, fig. 76). The auction's piece is identical, except for a frame of volutes behind the figure. It is very likely that the piece of the Olsen Collection had this frame as well, but it fell off at some point and that is why the piece has been herein reproduced with the reconstructed volutes. Compare with MNA 6-6754. Glyphs:  Glyph C in the headdress flanked by two ears of corn.

Comments:  The shapes in the throne have been opened on the sides and it seems this was done on purpose to be able to decorate the piece with feathers, plants or other objects. In the upper part of the throne, there are also holes to allow the decoration of the piece. Caso says that this piece was found as an offering to Stelae 16 (Caso 1938: 19). Skulls of birds and a "very dark" soil were found inside the piece (Caso, Bernal y Acosta 1967: 127). This piece was found next to another urn (see MNA Mont. Y.W.of.2-2). Both were covered with broken pieces of earthenware and flat stones to protect them. Compare with ROM 1936, MFR s/n 6, SMI 115002, UPM 29-41-707 and KERR 6460. Glyphs:  Glyph C in the headdress. The glyph for corn grain in the throne's dossal.
