Avimorph pendants are among the most frequently found metal objects in the archaeological region of Gran Nicoya. The inventoried figure seems to combine the attributes of different creatures (eagle, vulture, hummingbird, toucan). Although the headdress, the wings and the oversized tail sections of the object are very flat, they have no additional decoration. Despite its formal similarity to the objects of the Veraguas-Chiriquí group, the figurine has special technical and design features. These include the production in hearth moulding, the limited use of the wax thread technique, the small size of the figure, the lack of head decoration and the reduction of the depicted being to a few attributes. The elements listed seem to indicate limited material resources and limited technical skills on the part of the makers. (Künne 2005)
