This terracotta figurine of a standing female figure, crafted by the Colima culture in western Mexico between 201 and 600 CE, exemplifies the artistic traditions of the region. The figure is depicted with a stylized head, emphasized breasts, and exaggerated genitalia, which were common features in Colima art. This small, ceramic figure, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, provides insight into the beliefs and aesthetics of the ancient Colima people.
