A Gallery Unearthed
Photograph by Kenneth Garrett
Every one of the elite residences excavated so far has included a workshop—a sign that Aguateca's sculptors, painters, ceramic artists, and scribes came overwhelmingly from the ranks of nobility. A sampling of clay figurines shows their range of inspiration: left to right, a ritual clown performer, a warrior, a young noblewoman holding a fan, an old woman, a monstrous face, and a mysterious animal. Some of them were also whistles and probably used in rituals.
