This small terracotta figurine, crafted by artists from Michoacan between 200 and 700 CE, depicts a standing female figure. The figure is stylized with simplified features, emphasizing the female form. The figure's head is adorned with a headdress and the body is decorated with incised lines, perhaps representing clothing or ornamentation. The piece is a testament to the artistry and cultural expression of ancient Mesoamerican civilizations, offering valuable insights into their beliefs and practices.
