    Ditto. Looks like they are pre-Columbian style figurines from Ecuador. Probably not of the period.
    More photos would be appreciated.
     
  4. Okay how should I take them ?

    Thanks for the extra pics. Here is my opinion, without handling them, so to be checked hands on by someone knowledgeable:

    The first one is really nice.:) That face is a treasure.
    It looks like it could be an antique replica, which is a replica (fake?) made over 100yrs ago.
    Antique fakes and replicas also have a nice value.

    It would be good if someone took a look at it just to be sure.
    The best way to assess if terracottas are pre-Columbian is to handle them and smell them. I can't do that from here, and I can't tell you what to look for.
    So if I were you, I would contact a museum with a good pre-Columbian department near you, and show little guy #1 to an expert there.
    If you are going to a museum with #1, take #2 along too, you never know.

    If you need help finding a museum, ask here, there are plenty of US members who can help you.
    Will you keep us posted?

    @AjVintageLover .... so far from the items they left behind , I get the feeling they knew the value....or lack thereof , & while in some cases very nice....they left no treasures...;):(
