Pre-Colombian art museum

Hola,

We decided to have a day of rest and go to the art museum. Some of the art comes from cultures pre dating the Inca by up to 1000 years or more.

A mortar and pestle

A statue

Another statue

A bottle, note the mans head with open mouth

A bottle, covered in faces

A bottle in the shape of a camel (or was it a llama)

A bracelet of seashells

Incan gold earrings, approx 10cm diameter

All in all a rather dull afternoon for me (Regan). Erin seemed to like it though.

sue: Can you bring me back a bottle or a statue like that please!! (10/31/06)

Juanita: Imagine what your ears would grow to look like if you wore earrings like that! (11/01/06)
