Rattle in the Form of a Mythological Figure. Late Classic Maya, Jaina, Campeche or Yucatán, Mexico, A.D. 650/800. Many of the hollow interiors of mold-made Jaina figurines were transformed into rattles or whistles. As musical instruments, they may have been played during the funerary ceremonies of the deceased whom they accompanied into the afterlife. Ceramic and pigment, H. 18.4 cm (7 1/4 in.). Gift of Joseph P. Antonow, 1970.1053.
