EDITORS COMMENTS
This anthropomorphic ceramic vessel hails from the Puruha Culture, a Pre-Incan civilization that flourished in what is now Ecuador between 1300 and 1500 AD. The Puruha people are known for their distinctive pottery, which often features intricately modeled human faces and figures. This particular piece, measuring 17 x 15 cm in diameter, showcases an anthropomorphic form with a prominent, expressive face. The figure's hands are delicately modeled, adding to the sense of life and movement. The head is adorned with intricate patterns and textures, suggesting the influence of the intricate textiles and body art that were also characteristic of the Puruha culture. The Puruha people lived in the highlands of Ecuador, and their pottery reflects the rich natural environment of the region. The ceramics were often decorated with geometric designs, as well as representations of animals and human figures. This vessel is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of the Puruha people, whose culture has left an indelible mark on the history of the Americas. The anthropomorphic ceramics of the Puruha Culture are highly prized by collectors and scholars for their artistic merit and historical significance. This piece, with its expressive face and intricate details, is a striking example of the artistry and craftsmanship of the Puruha people. It serves as a reminder of the rich and complex history of the Pre-Columbian civilizations of the Americas, and the enduring influence of their artistic traditions.
