Shamanic Figure with Animal Traits

102
Esta escultura de piedra (100–800) de la antigua Costa Rica representa una figura en cuclillas con ojos exagerados y un hocico pronunciado, que posiblemente combina rasgos humanos y animales. Estas imágenes híbridas se relacionaban con la transformación chamánica, simbolizando la capacidad de atravesar los reinos espirituales y encarnar el poder de los animales espirituales durante los rituales.
