The Colima culture buried their fallen with figurines like this stunning example so the deceased would have companionship in the afterlife. A shaft was dug a few feet and a tomb dug out at the bottom of the shaft. The deceased was gently lowered down the shaft with the burial buddy into the tomb. Outstanding condition. Very rare in this condition. No repairs or damage found. This figurine has been buried for around 2000 years but is in remarkable condition. It has been professionally restored to as near original condition as is possible.
