Quimbaya Ceremonial Ceramic Piece

119
This ceramic piece (1000 BC–1500 AD) by the Quimbaya civilization illustrates a ceremonial act, possibly involving music or ritual offerings. The elongated forms and interaction between figures suggest symbolic communication with the divine, reflecting the spiritual life of the Quimbaya in Colombia’s Cauca Valley.
