Bronze figure of Vishnu; it is one of the deities that formed part of the domestic altar. Because of the pujas, the facial features are completely worn away. The god with the mudra of fearlessness in one of his hands, and in the other arms and hands the conch, the disk, or the hand resting on the hip, is a typical representation that stands out for its bulk and for the beautiful golden color of the bronze.

Figura de Vishnú en bronce, se trata de una de las deidades que formaban parte del altar doméstico. Debido a las pujas los rasgos de la cara están totalmente borrados, el dios con el mudra de no temor en una de sus manos y en los otros brazos y manos la caracola, el disco o la mano apoyada en la cadera es una típica representación que de destacar por algo lo hace por la corpulencia y por el bello color dorado del bronce.
