Anthropomorphic Vase Marajoara

In this object of ceremonial use the theme of the two serpents - a recurrent iconography of the Marajoara, perhaps related to some myth - appears as a human face. The two heads represent the eyes. Their bodies make up the typical V-eyebrows. A button at the junction of the two tails sets up the nose. The bulge, bathed in white, is decorated with incised geometric shapes.
