The ear ornament is very similar to cat. no. 180 (Aztec Catalogue, 2003); in addition, between the bird's head and the pendant consisting of four links and four bells there is a rectangular plaque with a bird's face, which is possibly identical to the bird's head representing an eagle or the wood grouse Coxcoxtli. The piece comes from the far south of the Aztec empire, from the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. Not far from here, in Soconusco in western Chiapas, the Aztecs collected tribute in the form of gold; the metal was processed by Mixtec specialists into elaborate finished products such as jewellery. (V. König, 2003)
