Monumental Mezcala Axe God Figure, M10 Type, Guerrero
Exceptional Mezcala M10 stone figure from ancient Guerrero, ca. 300–100 BCE. Monumental 18” carving with bold geometric form and ritual sign
This exceptional and commanding Pre-Columbian Mezcala stone carving from ancient Guerrero dates to approximately 300–100 BCE. This rare, large-format figure—identified as Type M10 in Carlo Gay’s definitive typology—stands as one of the most architecturally refined and abstract expressions of the revered Mezcala sculptural tradition. Hewn from a dense, green-gray stone with superb balance and precision, the figure towers 18 inches tall (18.8 inches on its custom museum-quality mount), placing it among the largest and most powerful examples to appear on the market.
