5926302 Statuette of a meditating old man, Lagunillas, Late Preclassic-Early Classic period, 300 BC-600 AD (clay, slip and burnish) by Mexican School; 41x26.5x24.2 cm; Museo Amparo, Puebla, Mexico; (add.info.: Figure representing an old man of high social hierarchy; his way of sitting could be one of the conventions to include men of high rank; it has a remarkable ritual character: the attitude is of deep introspection, an active statism is perceived that refers to a state of meditation; To this is added the small container that he holds in his right hand and that alludes to the ingestion of substances, probably in a religious sphere, so it is possible that the old man had priestly functions, in addition to others of the political or social order.).
