Female Figure, 12th–9th century , Mexico, Mesoamerica, Tlatilco, Ceramic, H. 2 15/16 in. ( cm), Ceramics-Sculpture, This solid, hand-modeled ceramic figurine is buff in color and painted with a red pigment. She has bulbous thighs and stunted, splayed arms, and a pair of long braids extends down her back. Although the figure’s navel, mouth, and right ear appear to be pierced (perhaps to support removable jewelry), her only adornment is a coiled necklace that conforms to the thick contours of the neck
