Context (Amendments / updates)
When the Mexican archaeology collection was re-packed for storage in 1985 the objects were assessed by Mary Hill Harris and other museum colleagues, then boxed according to period. This object was packed with Aztec material and the Period field has now been updated accordingly; the Period field previously read 'Preclassic; Classic; Postclassic; Aztec; Toltec'.
