Black limestone mask, Santiago Ahuizotla, Mexico. This stone mask, found in the basin of Mexico, displays a wide forehead and stylized planar features typical of the Teotihuacan style. Designs are carved on the cheeks, representing facial painting and it was perhaps originally inlaid with shell or other material. Several artefacts from Teotihuacan were found at the Templo Mayor of Tenochtitlan (Mexico City). They were brought to the capital from different regions as tribute following warfare and conquest.
