Reference:  Dollero 1911: 813; Boos 1966b: 126, fig. 108; Winter 1994: 146.
Comments:  According to a note published by Dollero (1911: 813), this piece comes from Ejutla and this author lets us guess that it was part of an exhibition in town. Part of the glyphic information got loose from the cartouche. The cartouche hangs from the owl's neck. This piece was bought in 1947 by Berkely Galleries (personal communication with Kevin Smith, Curator for Mesoamerica, Buffalo Science Museum, 1998).
