Greater Nicoya Seated Male Vessel

This ceramic vessel (500–800 AD) portrays a seated nude man with one hand raised to his forehead, shielding his eyes or engaged in a ritual gesture. The exaggerated limbs and serene face suggest symbolic or spiritual significance, with the bowl-shaped head indicating its dual role as a container, likely used in ceremonial contexts.
