A wooden headdress depicting a mythic antelope mother and child. The larger antelope has long horns, a narrow face, and a curved neck. Each horn has carved into it three sets of four rings. A pattern of carved lines runs vertically down each side and across the forehead. Attached to the face with small nails are metal decorations down both cheeks and across the forehead. A similar decoration is found on both sides of the torso and across the back. The eyes are made of metal nails with a large head. In the ears are round twisted metal rings. The small antelope is on her back. Its short horns are also carved with rings, two sets of four per horn. It has a round twisted metal nose ring, the same large-headed nails for eyes, and earrings of shell and red and blue plastic beads. The large-headed nails are used as decoration in various locations on the figure.
A funerary figure. The figure is made of wood, but the front is completely covered with metal sheeting. The sheeting is attached to the wood with nails and staples, and patterns and features have been pressed into it. The face is flat, with an emphasized brow, and the mouth is indented into the metal. Eyes and protruding nose are made of copper. Behind the face is a patterned back piece, above which is a crescent-shaped headdress. Below the face is a thin wooden piece partly wrapped with metal, the lower third is bare wood. A hole is carved into the uncovered wood portion, and the bottom of the piece is cleaved.
Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The composition is focused in the top two-thirds of the page. An inscription reads "martes 18 de octubre de 983" along the top of the page. A large yellow and green truck containing four human figures has been drawn below this inscription, in addition to a small green vehicle. These two vehicles are travelling along a horizontal road. The words "Pi Pi" have been written to the right of the smaller vehicle. A narrow road containing two green vehicles and three yellow vehicles drops down from the horizontal road above, and it appears as though the road is leading to a scene that has been created in the middle of the page. This scene looks like a base or camp, with its five buildings, two trees, six human figures, and one helicopter. The word "von" has been written to the left of the green and yellow helicopter. A small square has been drawn below this scene, and it contains the text "carro para tras ladava la jente para mesas grandes". Two green trees have been drawn to the right of this text box, along with the words "palode mango". The reverse contains an inscription in pencil: "Juventi no can pamento 5".
Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The page contains objects and small scenes rather than a large, coherent composition. An inscription in the upper left corner reads "miercoles 19 de octubre de 1983". The word "Silvia" has been written in large letters in the middle of the composition. The bottom left corner contains a helicopter with a pilot and an onlooker, and the word "avion" has been written beside the rotorcraft. An oblong object containing round shapes and a small human face has been drawn in the bottom right corner, and the words "Rio lempa" have been written beside this object. Above and to the left of this oblong object, which likely represents a river, is a small scene containing a field with five plants, a bird, and two human figures. The other objects in this drawing contain a small house, potted plants, and trees. The reverse contains a long inscription in Spanish.
Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The page is divided horizontally by a dark blue band that likely represents a river. Below the blue band, in the bottom third of the drawing, is a purple building with pink lines projecting from the top, perhaps representing fire. There is a single human figure below the river. Above the river is a busy scene containing mountains, twenty-eight human figures, a helicopter, and two trees. Nineteen of these human figures are lined up along the river bank, and one of these figures is disproportionately large.
Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The page is divided by a diagonal light blue band that is positioned in the middle of the page. This band likely represents a river. Two human figures have been drawn in the middle of the river, along with a rectangular object. The area to the right of the river contains the words "El Salvador" written in pencil, the words "El Salvador" written in ink, a house with a brown roof, six human figures drawn in blue ink, and a single tree. The area to the left of the river contains the word "Honduras" written in pencil, the word "Hondoras" written in ink, an inscription that reads "Lenpa y los ernandez yoo" in ink, eleven human figures drawn in ink, and two trees. Both of the trees to the left of the river display flowers, in addition to leaves.
Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. A vertical band coloured green, blue and brown has been drawn on the right side of the composition, and this band represents a river. There are two human figures lying on the ground to the right of the river, and there are four human figures floating in the river itself. Two green trees, a red and blue plane, and five human figures have been drawn on the left side of the river. A red path leads from the river up to a large, multi-coloured house. There are two green human figures on the path itself, and there is one figure in the house. A large, colourful, multi-coloured plant has been drawn to the left of the house. The left side of the composition contains an oblong, multi-coloured building. A path leads down from this building to the lower left corner of the page. This path is similar to the other path in that it is red and contains two green human figures.
Standing male figure wearing a wide-brimmed, pointed hat and holding a pipe or horn to his mouth with his left hand. He is wearing a long tunic, open at the sides, with a pleat up the centre of both the front and back. In his right hand he is holding a staff with three rings placed at intervals on the shaft. Over his left shoulder is a patterned bag. The ears are large and round, holes are cut for eyes, mouth is slightly open, and the nose is prominent. The chin is pointed. The figure’s wide set legs are long, thin and straight where they protrude out from under his tunic; his small feet are planted firmly on a thin square base.
A female figure carved in bone. The figure has a large, relatively flat head to front and back, with three horn-like projections rising out of the top. An inverted teardrop shape is carved into the prominent forehead between the eyes. The ears are narrow and carved close to the head, the nose is wide, and the mouth is thin-lipped. The neck is made up of two carved rings, leading in back to prominently carved shoulders and buttocks, and in front to breasts and a protruding stomach. Arms hang straight down, ending at the hips, and have no hands. The legs are slightly bent at the knees, and end at feet carved into a round base with a hole in the centre. Many areas of the body have been texturized with a pattern of fine carved lines, most prominently on buttocks, shoulders and horns. The rough interior of the bone can be seen on the top of the head, groin area, and centre of the base.
A cast bronze figure wearing an elaborate headdress that has a woven cap with large curved elements attached on top and to the front. Smaller decorations hang down the neck of the figure in back, and long strings hang down to the waist, attached to the cap in front of the ears. A wide, ringed neck ornament juts out past the chin. The figure wears a long sleeved garment that ends mid-shin and is decorated with raised, angled lines that make a diamond pattern. The left arm is slightly bent, with the hand resting on the hip, while the left arm is bent at a 90 degree angle and the hand holds a large curved ornament or weapon with a twisted circular handle. This element is also attached to the figure at the head and thigh. The legs protrude from the bottom edge of the tunic at the mid-shin, and end in rough feet on a square base that is too small to balance the figure when standing.
