阿兹特克文化 公元14世纪至15世纪初 Terracotta 玩具人偶 - 8 cm

大号阿兹特克陶土战士或神祇头颅，墨西哥中部，公元14世纪至公元16世纪初。

Striking and well-preserved terracotta head of impressive size, depicting a warrior or deity with a monumental, fan-shaped headdress richly decorated with incised parallel lines and textured details.

The face shows strong, serene features with closed eyes, prominent nose, and slightly open mouth.

The piece retains a beautiful dark grey to reddish-brown patina with attractive natural encrustation and remains in very good condition.

Heads of this quality and scale are characteristic of Aztec (Mexica) sculptural art and were likely part of larger composite figures used in temples, palaces or elite ritual contexts.
