Pottery vessel of the Storm God. Teotihuacan, 150 BCE-750 CE. From Mexico. The Storm God portrayed at Teotihuacan was later known to the Aztec as the Rain God Tlaloc. Its main characteristics are 'goggle' eyes and fangs protruding from the corners of a curled upper lip. Similar features are present in this pottery vessel, although the eyes, shape of the lip and position of the body are atypical compared to other known pieces. 19.5 x 16.5 cm. Inv. ET Am1920,0216,1.
