Traducción automática: Máscara, siglos III-VII, México, Mesoamérica, Teotihuacan, mármol ónice (tecalli), alto 7 1/2 x ancho 6 1/2 x profundidad 3 3/8 pulgadas (19,1 x 16,5 x 8,6 cm), escultura en piedra. No había tradición de retratos en la gran ciudad de Teotihuacan, en el centro de México, pero las máscaras que representan el rostro humano son abundantes en el estilo asociado con el sitio. Con su frente horizontal representada geométricamente, nariz triangular y boca y ojos ovalados, esta máscara representa el tipo facial idealizado que parece funcionar como un símbolo, similar a otros motivos estandarizados presentes en el arte de Teotihuacan.
