Taíno Andesite Owl Zemí Idol, Dominican Republic – 10th to 15th Century AD

Carved from dark grey andesite with a fine polished patina, this stone sculpture depicts a stylized owl with large circular eyes, a prominent hooked beak, and wings folded tightly around its compact body. The figure is shown in a characteristic crouched posture with finely incised details on the feathers, wings, and facial features. In Taino culture, owl zemíes were important symbolic objects associated with the night, the spirit world, ancestors, and shamanic power.
