Pair of Earspools
Not on view
These translucent obsidian earspools feature a delicately incised name of a royal lady. The earflares were deposited—probably much later—in the tomb of a male, perhaps as an heirloom.
Las orejeras translúcidas de obsidiana llevan el nombre de una dama de la realeza inscripto mediante delicadas incisiones. Las orejeras fueron depositadas probablemente mucho tiempo después en la tumba de un hombre, quizás como una herencia.
