Listen to the jingling of ayoyotes, the bells marking the steps of the dancers while performing exciting pre-Hispanic dances.
Another design in our pre-Hispanic series of earrings. These replicas of pre-Hispanic Columbian gold earrings were originally made for a museum exhibit. They are completely hand-made following the same techniques of the original craftsmen. The only modification are the 14kt gold filled earwires, added to accommodate modern ear piercing. The earrings are fabricated from a proprietary brass alloy that mimics the color of gold and will never tarnish. Each shape is formed with a hammer and chisel cutting. Because of the small scale of these (1.25 wide) the spirals were very difficult to achieve. This pair is the fourth attempt, and we will certainly keep at it until we can get proficient . All in all, this was a very satisfying experience, in which we learned a lot about ancient craft techniques in attempting to replicate the objects these artisans produced.

The Mayan town of Uxmal, in Yucatán, was founded c. A.D. 700 and had some 25,000 inhabitants. The layout of the buildings, which date from between 700 and 1000, reveals a knowledge of astronomy. The Pyramid of the Soothsayer, as the Spaniards called it, dominates the ceremonial centre, which has well-designed buildings decorated with a profusion of symbolic motifs and sculptures depicting Chaac, the god of rain. The ceremonial sites of Uxmal, Kabah, Labna and Sayil are considered the high points of Mayan art and architecture. whc.unesco.org/en/list/791
