A collection of stone artifacts and statues in a courtyard adjacent to the Momine Khatun Mausoleum (also known as Mu’mine Khatun Mausoleum, Atabey’s Cupola and Atabek Dome).

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. galeriacontici.net/listings/monumental-mezcala-axe-god-fi...
