Chorotega Gold Idol Pendant

This gold idol (800–1550 AD) from Costa Rica’s northern Pacific region depicts a stylized human figure framed by spiraled arms and wide, paddle-like feet. Likely worn as a pendant, it represents fertility, transformation, or divine power in Chorotega belief. The spirals may symbolize spiritual energy or cosmic cycles.
