Standing Figure

The "Standing Figure" dates back from circa 100 B.C. to 100 A.D. found in the Columbia or Ecuador area of the Tolita-Tumaca culture. It is a metal sculpture that is nine inches by height, seven and a quarter inches by width and three and three-quarters inches by diameter. It is clothed for special occasions and is of Pre-Columbian art. There is an implication that the standing figure once had a headdress and in addition to that, the Standing Figure lost its feet.
