This stunning artifact was once a proud part of the palace's ornamentation in Tenochtitlan, Motecuhzoma II's magnificent city. The cubic shape and intricate design set it apart from countless stone snakeheads discovered near the Templo Mayor building, which depict ophidians with remarkable realism. This exceptional piece captures the style that dominated Xochicalco centuries before the Mexica culture reached its peak.
