Maya Mask of Death and Rebirth Sculpture Relief PLAQUE
Item No. 1015S
Reproduction of Original from Tikal, Mexico. 900 AD, Maya
This Maya mask shows the different stages of life as part of a never ending cycle of human evolution
through life and the afterlife as it was understood by the Mayans. The mask has three layered faces,
each representing one particular stage of life. The inner face represents the beginning of life at birth.
The middle face is the most important one since it represents the adult stage when the person comes
into his full potential and most of his life experiences happened. The outer or third face represents the
end of earthly life. This sacred time was viewed by the Maya as the end of one cycle and the beginning of
another one. Death was followed by lavish preparations for the next life.
