Chronology:  MA IIIA (Winter 1994a: 144); Tani 200 - 350 AD  Click to view Chronology
Reference:  Schuler-Schömig 1970: 116, plate 173; Winter 1994a: 144.
Comments:  This urn is typical from the phase that Caso and Bernal called "transition" because of the type of headdress that looks like a lamp shade. The human figure is holding a mouth mask with feline traits. The right arm has been repaired. There is photograph at the Ibero American Institute in Berlin showing Edward Seler at the Hacienda de Cacique, next to a table with this piece and others. Due to the ceramic types associated with the urn, we can infer that it was part of a ceramic assemblage from the transition period and probably comes from a single burial.
Glyphs:  Glyph C in the headdress.
Dating:  TL by Goedicke et al. 1992, test no.173: authentic (TL's date: A.C. 796-918).
