EXCEPTIONAL JAMACOAQUE ZOOMORPHIC
EXCEPTIONAL JAMACOAQUE ZOOMORPHIC VESSELPre-Columbian, Ecuador, Jamacoaque culture, ca. 500 CE. A captivating pottery vessel in the form of a fantastical quadruped ornately decorated with incised and applied features, as well as red and green pigments. Resting on his belly, the expressive zoomorph bends all 4 limbs upward, displaying sharp claws as his lengthy tail extends from his posterior. His elaborate visage displays narrowed, heavy-lidded eyes above a projecting snout with lengthy fangs, bared teeth, and a jagged, forked tongue that extends skywards, all crowned by a pair of petaloid ears with annular earspools and a target-motif headband. A central knob projects from his forehead just above a ribbon-form loop that surmounts the snout. Behind his head, a sizeable, flared spout rises from his back leading to the vessel's hollow interior. Size: 19" L x 6.5" W x 7.9" H (48.3 cm x 16.5 cm x 20.1 cm); 11.9" H (30.2 cm) on included custom stand.
Zoomorphic figures like this one are thought to represent shamans in the act of transformation. According to Professor Rebecca Stone (Humanities Professor, Associate Professor in Art History, and Faculty Curator of Art of the Ancient Americas in the Michael C. Carlos Museum at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia): "'Normal' experiences, basic to human existence, can be called into question by going into other modes of perception, such as trance consciousness. During trances, the corporeal is reported to fall away, and gravity's weight is replaced by a feeling of soaring flight. Plants, animals, and humans merge and exchange identities. Through trances, shamans feel they directly communicate with spirits and often transform into other beings to acquire esoteric knowledge, songs, and information about herbal cures, the future, and distant situations." (Stone, Rebecca. "The Jaguar Within: Shamanic Trance in Ancient Central and South American Art." University of Texas Press, Austin, 2011, pp. 1-2)
