    • Abstract:
      Alert posture, lively expression, and portrait-like features characterize figures of high-ranking people from one of the various tomb-sculpture styles in the vicinity of Ixtlan del Rio, Nayarit. Careful modeling of the coiffure and jewelry, as well as bold facial painting, denotes the status and office of West Mexican chieftains.
