This artifact, at first glance appears to be made of copper because of the greenish blue color. Upon closer inspection though you can see rust, and copper doesn't rust, it oxidizes. Which leads me to believe that it is some other sort of metal. This object appears to be no more than an inch, and doesn't appear to be very wide.

There appears to be no movable parts to it and there is a indentation on the front that may have been a design or something written on it at one point in time. This artifact could have been used as a string

With Atahualpa as their hostage, the Spaniards began sacking the city, stripping sacred religious objects from the temples of the sun and moon. Atahualpa, saw that the Spaniards valued gold and silver so highly. Therefore he made Pizarro an offer he knew he could not refuse.

Standing at a height of twelve inches tall, this Vessel was one of many Aztec artifacts form 1300 A.D. It is made from brown earthenware clay and is painted with red with intricate details in black.

The object I discovered is a small metal object with a decorative shape. It has some sort of metal spring inside and is composed of two metal sections in similar size and shape connected by a hinge, with a screw connected to the bottom of one piece. I can assume that this object was most likely used for holding a thin object using the spring to keep it in place. The screw, however, might have been inserted into a holder of some sort in order to keep both the object being held and the holder in place.
