Popular Post Eldorado Posted January 12, 2021 Popular Post #1 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Farmers digging in a citrus grove near Mexico's Gulf coast have found a striking, six-foot-tall statue of a female figure who may represent an elite woman rather than a goddess, or some mixture of the two, experts said Friday. The National Institute of Anthropology and History said it was the first such statue found in a region known as the Huasteca. The carved woman has an elaborate hairpiece and marks of status, and may date to around 1450 to 1521, the institute said. While the site where it was found is nearer to the pre-Hispanic ruin site of El Tajín, the statue shows some influences of the Aztecs.

godnodog Posted January 16, 2021 #12 Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) well my brain is malfunction again, I see no resemblances to Ahsoka Tano. Queen Amidala I can see some Edited January 16, 2021 by godnodog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vox Posted January 16, 2021 #13 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I was hoping for a bit more nerdom. I’m sadly disappointed. Ashoka Tano is a Togruta, and those things on her head are ‘Lekku’ - fleshy appendages, not a headdress. May the force be with you... 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
