Diquís Frog Pendant

317
This gold pendant (700–1550) portrays a robust frog with exaggerated limbs and webbed feet, reflecting its symbolic power in Diquís culture. Frogs represented fertility, transformation, and rain. Their association with both water and land made them potent spiritual intermediaries, ideal for shamanic and ceremonial adornment.
