Descripción
This basalt sculpture shows us the figure of a man wearing an animal over his head, which was considered his Nahual or protector spirit. In some cases, the man is melded together with the animal to such a degree that it is difficult to tell who is the main subject of the scene since both of them has equal importance. Owls were associated with mystery, prophecy and wisdom.
