| This 8” tall grey-ware cylinder vessel (AJC109) is attributed to the Classic Maya dating c.300-900AD. In overall very good condition with a barely noticeable 3” hairline crack from the rim, the vertically positioned incised lines surrounding its body terminate against the base of an encircling panel that portrays the enigmatic, glyph-like image of what may represent the beaked head of the revered vulture. The crack-like feature near the base of the jar does not penetrate its interior, and is only a shallow depression that developed during the firing process. With no repairs, the vessel comes with a small display card, a map of Middle America showing the area in which the Maya ruled, and our certificate guaranteeing authenticity. | |||||||||
