Fragment, probably of a statue of chicome coatl. Although badly damaged, the jagged crown and tassel are recognisable. The tassels on the left are only connected at the bottom; the headdress is broken at the top. The tassel on the right is missing. The circular ornaments on the hoop of the spiked crown are applied with mortar.
