Comments:  The right hand has been restored. Seler's drawing shows that the left hand is missing and the headdress does not have any broken parts, so it is possible that there may be two pieces. The color drawing presented here is based on Seler's watercolor.

Reference:  Caso and Bernal 1952: 270, fig. 420
Comments:  Caso and Bernal say about this piece: "We have some urns of this type from period IIIB. Probably the already said piece from the offering at the entrance of tomb 124...as, unfortunately, tomb 124 was plundered and the figure appeared on its own, in spite of the fact that it was found in an exploration, we are not sure that it was made during the period IIIB" (1952: 271). The helmet worn by this human figure seems to have the shape of an opossum, inside of which there is a well-shaped face.
