Fine 4 3/4" Tumbaga Figural Pendant, Darien culture, Colombia. Circa CE 1-500. An exceptional and classic example showing a highly-stylized standing human figure, likely a shaman in battle or possibly a warrior. Though lacking a gold-colored surface, this is a large and showy work of art by ancient Colombian metalsmiths.
