mask

The oval face represents a man or perhaps a deity. The face has holes of various shapes and sizes representing the eyes, nostrils and mouth; the nose is a gentle protrusion. There are small holes all around the skull, presumably to hold tufts of real hair. The entire face was apparently painted ochre, or orange-yellow, and still bears visible traces of that color. There is a deep hole under the neck, which suggests that the face was once fixed to a post and was probably used in cult ceremonias
