Set of two (2) squared-shaped jade ornaments with a round hole in the center and small holes in the corners, possibly to sew the beads to a headdress, headband, or clothing. The pieces are worked so that four grooves radiate from the center to each of the corners. Remains of hematite in the center. IDAEH Cultural Property No. 1.2.144.0513 www.fundacionrutamaya.org
