Nicoya Ceremonial Metate with Geometric Carvings

Este metate finamente tallado de la región de Nicoya (c. 1000–1350 d. C.) cumplía una función ritual, posiblemente vinculada a ritos funerarios u ofrendas de la élite. Los motivos abstractos pueden simbolizar el maíz, el cosmos o el estatus. Su plataforma elevada y sus patas trípodes subrayan su carácter ceremonial, no utilitario.
