The Teotihuacan Head Stamp is an original ancient artifact made of sandstone, originating from Mexico.
Size is 1.5" wide x 2.25" long.
This artifact represents the pre-Columbian Olmec and Mayan cultures, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship and artistry of Latin American civilizations.
The brownish-tan color and natural patina adds to its unique and historical appeal, making it a valuable piece of ethnographic and antiquity history.
Iacquired this piece back in 2017 from a collection of Tiano culture items from a gentleman in Ky that traveled and collected a lot of items in the 70's. He was a private collectorand has since passed away.
He had this labeled Tiano culture S America/ Lesser Antilles and he knew his stuff!
If you google "Mesoamerica/Caribbean Infinity of nations" you will find a great article on this culture as well as some refined examples of some of their pottery.
This artifact would be a valuable addition to any collection of Pre-1600 Native American artifacts, offering a glimpse into the ancient civilizations of the Americas. Its unique design and craftsmanship make it a distinct piece of history that reflects the rich cultural heritage of the region.
