The Yup’ik people (plural Yupiit) are a group of Indigenous peoples native to western, southwestern, and south-central Alaska, as well as parts of the Russian Far East. Derived from the words yuk ("person") and pik ("real"), the name translates to the "real people". They form the largest single Alaska Native group.
A traditional Yup'ik carved wooden dance or shaman's mask from Southwestern Alaska, featuring characteristic attached limb-like appendages and dual-pigment coloring.
Often incorporates symbolic appendages (such as arms, legs, or feathers) representing spirits (Yua) or transformation narratives in ceremonial dances.
Traditionally carved from local woods like spruce or cottonwood and finished with natural pigments.

Quizzical mask terracotta, pigments c. 500 BCE to 500 CE Bahia culture Ecuador #handmade #ancientart #art #terracotta #pigments #mask #quizzicalexpression #BahiaCulture #Ecuador #precolumbian #prehispanic #sculptural #sculpted #humanform #face #culture #ritual #religion #belief #fertility #victory

Mask with strong facial features.
Beige and coffee-red terracotta
Bahía, Ecuador, 500 BC – 500 AD.
16 x 19 cm

Provenance: Sens Enchères auction, Sens, January 22, 2005, lot no. 131.

The Bahía culture, which flourished on the Ecuadorian coast, is distinguished by its expressive ceramic production, featuring faces with bold, well-defined features. This mask reflects a particular focus on identity and the human form. The strong modeling of the face—with its clean, balanced volumes—gives the piece a powerful sculptural presence characteristic of this culture's output.
The Bahía culture (500 BCE–500 CE) was a pre-Columbian culture in Ecuador.
Bahía culture originated in what is now the Manabí Province on the Pacific Coast, and spread to Bahía de Caráquez and to the Andean foothills. Their ceramic tradition is one of the first found north of the Andes.
Chirije, a seaport, was a major Bahía archaeological site discovered by Emilio Estrada in the 1950s. Merchants traded finished goods and Spondylus princeps or red spiny oyster shells south to Chile and north as far as Mexico in exchange for precious materials such as copper and gold.

Jalisco's ancient history centers on the vibrant Teuchitlán tradition, a major pre-Columbian society that built unique circular architecture.
The Guachimontones site features cone-shaped pyramids surrounded by circular plazas.
Builders arranged platforms in rings to reflect their religious views and calendar.
Society grew near the Tequila volcano around 300 BCE because the soil was rich.
People dug deep vertical shafts with side chambers for elite family burials.
Artists placed detailed clay figurines and food vessels inside the tombs to honor the dead.

Grebo Kru mask wood, pigments late 19th century Grebo people Liberia, Africa #handmade #art #tribalart #Grebo #Liberia #Africa #africanart #africanmask #grebomask #warmask #carved #wood #pigments #culture #religion #belief #initiation #bodio #priest #male #kru #krumask #19thcentury #sculpture

The Grebo people (also known as the Glebo) are an indigenous ethnic group living primarily in the southeastern coastal regions and interior forests of Liberia, specifically in Maryland and Grand Kru counties. They are a subgroup of the larger Kru language and cultural family.
Unlike many neighboring West African tribes, the Grebo do not historically use the Poro secret society structure. Instead, they are traditionally guided by a high priest and chief known as a Bodio. The Bodio lives in near-total isolation, managing spiritual matters and mediating with ancestors while his physical needs are supported by the community.
The Grebo are globally famous for their highly abstract, geometric wooden masks. These sculptures radically contrast with the more naturalistic art styles of neighboring tribes like the Dan.
