Quimbaya-Style Dancer

324
This solid gold figurine represents a dancer, identifiable by its poised stance, clenched fists, and spiral ear ornaments. Though found in the Caribbean region of Costa Rica, the figure reflects Quimbaya artistic styles from Colombia (300–700), suggesting cultural exchange or migration across the Isthmus.
