介绍（中）	这尊雕像由实心粘土制成，以舒适放松的姿势坐着，左腿夹在右腿下面。人物的大部分表面都覆盖着奶油色的纸条；只有头顶和腰部没有打磨，这可能表明该人物所戴的帽子和衣服。右臂和手伸展，放在右脚上。左臂靠在地上，紧挨着左大腿。脚和手上的四个凹槽表示脚趾和手指。狭窄、细长、人为变形的头部有长长的耳缘，并略微向左倾斜；杏仁状的面部特征，浮肿的眼睛，厚厚的上唇和半张的嘴角是典型的奥尔梅克超自然现象。眉毛被画成淡淡的黑色；眼睛里残留着红色和白色颜料的痕迹这是在墨西哥中部高地的Las Bocas、Tlatilco和Tlapacoya等遗址发现的小型三维固体粘土雕像的一个很好的例子。这些人物在风格上表现出显著的一致性，但没有两个是相同的。这些作品以活跃的、经常是动画化的姿势展示了他们多肉的躯干和生动的面部表情，是墨西哥前哥伦布时期最自然的人形再现。
介绍（英）	The figure, modeled of solid clay, is shown sitting in a comfortably relaxed posture, left leg tucked under right. Most of the surface of the figure is covered with a cream-color slip; only the top of the head and the waist area are left unpolished probably indicating cap and garment worn by the figure.The right arm and hand are extended, resting on the right foot. The left arm rests on the ground next to the left thigh. Four grooves on the feet and hands indicate toes and fingers. The narrow, elongated, artificially deformed head has long ear flanges and tilts slightly to the left; the facial features with almond-shaped, puffy eyes, thick upper lip and half-open mouth with down-turned corners are typical of Olmec supernaturals. The eyebrows are drawn in a faint black; traces of red and white pigment remain in the eyes. This figure is a fine example of type of small three-dimensional solid clay figures found at such sites as Las Bocas, Tlatilco, and Tlapacoya in the central highlands of Mexico. These figures exhibit a remarkable uniformity in style, but no two are the same. With their fleshy torsos and lively facial expressions shown in active, often animated poses, the works are the most naturalistic renditions of the human form in Precolumbian Mexico.
