| From the Island of Jaina, and measuring 3 ½” in height, this miniature seated monkey vessel (RFM21) is attributed to the Late Classic Maya dating c.550-950AD. Glued together with 5-10% of professional restoration on the upper part of the ‘basket’ that the monkey supports on its back, the bowl may have been used for an offering. Traces of remnant white pigment mark much of the surface. From the collection of one of the founders of the former Rocky Mountain Institute of Pre-Columbian Studies, the figure comes with a small display card, a map of the Yucatan highlighting the Isle of Jaina, and our certificate guaranteeing authenticity.
