Important ceremonial zoomorphic ceramic vase with brick red slip

Western Mexico
Protoclassic Nayarit culture (100 BC - 250 AD)

The body is distinguished by its stylized shape and presents a tail and atrophied limbs. The oval-shaped head is characterized by coffee bean eyes framing a long straight nose ending in a small snout, the slightly open mouth showing the teeth.
