San Juanito Style Jalisco Terracotta Seated Man Holding a Baton and Bowl, 300 BCE - 300 CE

If the scepter this man holds did not tell us of his important position in life, his regal demeanor would. There is no question that he is a person of power in his own circle. The centuries he has spent underground have given him a patina of rich experience, as if with every passing year he has become wiser and more knowing in the ways of the world.
