[edit] Summary
A drawing of the Tuxtla Statuette by yours truly. Madman 19:53, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] References
This drawing was created by using a number of photos and drawings of the Tuxtla Statuette, including the following:
- Garrett, Kenneth (2003) Photo of the Tuxtla Statuette.
- Diehl, Richard A. (2004) The Olmecs: America's First Civilization, Thames & Hudson, London. Drawing of the statuette.
- This photo, original source unknown.
Where the photos and drawings were either unclear or where various sources provided conflicting evidence, probably due to damage sustained by the statuette over the millennia, I used the glyphs shown in Justeson and Kaufman's detailed exposition:
- Justeson, John S., and Kaufman, Terrence (2001) Epi-Olmec Hieroglyphic Writing and Texts.
I suspect that Justeson and Kaufman's drawings are more idealized, more perfect, than those actually inscribed upon the statuette.
