Roller seals were used by cultures in a wide area of the Ancient Americas, from Mexico to Ecuador. Incised with bold patterns, these seals were dipped in pigment and then rolled over a surface, sometimes cloth, sometimes the human body, to create a continuous repeated pattern. This large and splendid example is adorned with abstract floral designs and may have been used for decoraing clothing.
