Learn about the Figurilla Stone figures: the figurillas de piedra (stone figures) are part of the Mexico’s cultural legacy and one of the most important proofs of life and sources of information about ancient civilizations. In Mesoamerica, an infinite number of figurillas have been found, particularly in the center of Mexico. Most were made out of clay and are believed to come from the Formative period (300 B.C. – 100 A.D.). Generally molded into a human form or animal like figure, the figurillas were primarily used as religious offerings to the Gods.
