<p>[QUOTE=&quot;journeymagazine, post: 271577, member: 84&quot;]I found this [ATTACH=full]85960[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]85961[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]85962[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]85963[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]85964[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]85965[/ATTACH] at an estate sale a few years back. The lady&#039;s husband had passed away &amp; she and her kids were selling everything including the house to buy her a smaller condo since he was alone now &amp; the house was too big.</p><p>I saw this piece (as well as another that I also bought) in a glass case on a shelf. The lady holding the estate sale told me her husband was a history professor and archaeologist who took numerous trips to S. America for business &amp; pleasure - he brought this piece back with him on one trip, but she had no idea when; She also knew nothing about it.</p><p>It looks like a Aztec/Mayan person to me (look at the face in 3rd photo) - did they make pieces like this?</p><p>Is there a way to tell it&#039;s age/if it is real?</p><p>I&#039;ve kept this because I really think it&#039;s very old &amp; very unusual, but I have to sell it to make home repairs &amp; the more I know about it, the better I know what a fair price is (Or if I need to contact Christie&#039;s!)</p><p>It measures 4&quot; x 3&quot;</p><p>I greatly appreciate any help[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
