Crocodile-Head Figure Pendant A.D. 800-1519 Diquís This pendant features a zoomorphic being stretching a bicephalic serpent across its body. The figure also holds a severed leg in its mouth, signaling its role as a predator. Four abstract crocodilian heads with spiral eyes and snouts sprout from the head and feet of the creature, which is framed by two arched brackets. Composite creatures consisting of human figures with pronounced animal features occur throughout Costa Rica, signaling that beliefs and their expressions were shared by many groups. Local styles developed distinctive characteristics, however. Metalwork from the Diquís Delta area in southwestern Costa Rica is ornate and replete with detail. Spirals and twisted and braided rope proliferate, and danglers, tinkling like bells and glittering in the sunlight, sometimes conceal the figures behind them.Costa Rica is the most northerly of the Precolumbian goldworking areas, which run from southern Peru and Bolivia on the west sid

Qataban (Arabic,ÙÙلكة قتبان) was one of the ancient Yemeni kingdoms. Its heartland was located in the Baihan valley. Like some other Southern Arabian kingdoms it gained great wealth from the trade of frankincense and myrrh incense which was burned at altars. The capital of Qataban was named Timna and was located on the trade route which passed through the other kingdoms of Hadramaut, Sheba and Ma'in. The chief deity of the Qatabanians was Amm, or 'Uncle' and the people called themselves the 'Children of Amm'. Qataban was the most prominent Yemeni kingdom in the 2nd half of the 1st millennium BCE, when its ruler held the title of the South Arabian hegemon, MKRB. Sculpted stone heads, mounted on bases and placed in the vestibules of burial chambers, were common in the cemetery of Timna', capital of the kingdom of Qataban. The name of the woman represented here is Helqeb, as inscribed on the base.

Woman Riding Two Brahman Bulls 2000-1750 B.C. India (Kausambi) This remarkable object is the oldest bronze object in the Museums Indian collections, and is a rare survivor of the early bronze culture associated with the late Harappan civilization shared across northern India and the Indus Valley (Pakistan) in the second millennium B.C. Two humped (‘Brahman) bulls support a platform on which is a woman is kneeling. Her hands rest on the bulls humps. The ensemble is on a rectangular platform, which has been separately cast. The woman has a slender physique, pointed breasts, and hair that extends to her shoulders. She wears a small circular crown-like fitting atop her head, has deep eye sockets and an incised mouth. The symmetry of the female figure is mirrored in standing female clay figurines from this period and later.. Woman Riding Two Brahman Bulls. India (Kausambi). 2000-1750 B.C..

Moai Kavakava, 18th century, 18 3/4 x 5 in. (47.63 x 12.7 cm), Wood, Rapa Nui (Easter Island), 18th century, Moai kavakava, which means 'image with ribs,' is the most common of the wood sculptures on Rapa Nui. These gaunt male figures, with their protruding bones and skull-like heads, probably represent the spirits of the dead. Little is known about their precise functions, but it is likely that they were worn around the neck during certain festivals. The extended earlobes, typical of this type of sculpture, are shown with cylindrical ear ornaments representing the actual shark vertebra earplugs once worn by the island's inhabitants.

Celt with Incised Profile 10th-4th century B.C. Olmec A finely incised design appears on one side of this large, polished jadeite celt, or axe. A sculptor originally shaped and polished the hard greenstone into a long blade, the sharp edge of which was chipped in antiquity, and later a drill hole would have allowed the plaque to hang from a belt assemblage. Jade and greenstone axes were crucial components to Olmec dedicatory practices, also practiced in Chiapas and Guatemala after about 1000 B.C. On such celts, Olmec artists often incised images of deities, or even iconic or notational symbols, which developed and spread around Mesoamerica as proto-writing. An incised disembodied hand with a knot around the wrist floats towards the center of the celt. The hand is stylized yet retains certain details like a thumbnail to suggest a human connection. Atop the back or palm of the hand is a large rectangular field lined with five smaller rectangles. The arrangement might reference a quincunx

Model Sailing Boat Transporting a Mummy ca. 1900-1885 B.C. Middle Kingdom This model represents a funerary bark transporting the deceased Djehuty. His mummified body lies on a bier under a canopy and is tended by two women who play the roles of the goddesses Isis and Nephthys, sisters of the funerary god Osiris. Djehuty has become a blessed spirit and, in a way, Osiris himself: the short text on the papyrus scroll held by the priest addresses the mummy as "O Osiris."A group of sailors standing by the mast hoists the sail (not preserved) for this boat, while four men sit crouched before the mast and canopy. Their posture is akin to the so-called "block statues" or "cube statues," well known from Middle Kingdom art. It has been argued that this posture indicates the person so represented is partaking in rituals. The steersman and another person at the side of the bier crouch in a similar position, although each of them has one arm free for action.. Model Sailing Boat Transporting a Mummy
