Old hand carved wood mask identification

Looking for help identifying this old hand carved wood mask please. Curious about place of origin, age and value???
I have attached a few pics.
Thank you for your time!

 

Looks like a moros y cristianos mask from México to me (although I've not seen one unpainted.) Let's see what others think.

AND WELCOME to ANTIQUERS, @MjW!!! But you'll have to wait for others on your mask!!

 

Apologies, MjW, for my terrible manners. Didn't see that you were a new member. Welcome!

Welcome. I don't understand the holes above the eyes and no hole to get air in to breathe. It looks like a decoration to me, but I have zilch knowledge about masks so this is just an observation.

 

I wonder if the holes above the eyes once sported horns.

 

Here's an old moros y cristianos mask. Also has holes above the "eyes."

From and extensive blog about Mexican dance masks (sadly the author of the site passed away last March) is a post about diablo masks of Guatamala.

The next mask is one that seems prone to mislead. At first glance one sees a pair of eyes and then a pair of round holes at a higher level, just as one expects for a Guatemalan mask. Then one notices that there are vision slits over the carved eyes, while the round holes are unlikely to be a third set of eyes. Furthermore, the round holes are tapered. This is a Diablo mask that has lost its horns.
​

But looking at other masks, it looks more like the mask used in the conquest dance (Español mask). In that case the holes where the eyes are may be decoration, and the holes above are for the wearer to see out of. If you hold it up to your face, which holes match your eyes?
