A Jadeite Jade replica of the mask found in a tomb of a ruler. The eyes were once inlaid with iron pyrites. A ritual ritual Mask like this is typical of the Teotihuacan culture. It was closely connected to the deceased and it was believed to have magical power. Holding it before you face not only transforms you into the person represented by the mask, but you also adapt his/her physical and magical qualities. Apart from this enlightening force, it also protects against evil. The Teotihuacan mask is ‘ the other me’.
