The Painting I chose is called “Mixtec Culture.” And it was painted by Diego Rivera in 1942, Mexico. It’s a Fresco style painting, which is “a wall painting technique that has been used for large scale murals since ancient times” (Getlein 159). This entire painting is an homage to the culture of Mexico, specifically the Mixtec people, and that’s what I love about it. The Mixtec people were renowned for their artwork so it’s fitting that Rivera depicts a peaceful community of artists such as mask and jewelry makers. This painting celebrates the artistic culture of the Mixtec people and that theme is directly linked to the political influences of the time, “Mexican government commissioned artists to create murals about Mexico itself- the glories

For example the pieces of coral that each flagon have were from the Mediterranean. Additionally, the author of Episode Transcript of the Basse Yutz Flagon believes that the animals on the flagons tell us a lot about the its people.

Although a very small detail this shows that this ladle was of great use, it had no business being place on a countertop or drawer, it needed to be hung for display and future use at all times. Below this triangular cutout begins the hand of the ladle, smooth and round with no damages or signs of anything less than carved perfection. Underneath the smooth handle is the main attraction of the ladle. An incredible detailed woman lies naked on her knees, holding her breast; smiling and open eyed looking out onto everyone being served from her beneath bowl. This not only is the centerpiece of the ladle but also a very powerful image both from an artistic standpoint, but mostly for the significance it has to African culture. The Yoruba people much like many other African groups have a very strong appeal to the power of women, precious items such as ladle’s or iroke consist of three sectioned objects.

The fact that such a revealing and personal object, not just a purely plain and practical one such as pottery, from an ‘average’ person survived to the current day is remarkable. Seals cover a wide range of individuals and are useful in all kinds of archeological research, as they span the spectrum of class and a specific one can be found relating to many different and varied topics.The modern implications of cylinder seals as a collective group give incredible insight and are fascinating to behold. Ancient identities, beliefs, and statuses can all be divined from these seals. Cylinder seals have disappeared from use, and no parallel can be found in the modern world at first glance. Upon closer inspection, however, the elements of the seal can be seen in different objects. Present day signatures, rubber stamps, name necklaces, embossing cylinders, and religious jewelry all come to mind. Perhaps this is not an evolution of technology as one would assume- after all, would it not be convenient to have one singular small object to fulfill all of these purposes, and have it fit in the palm of your hand or on a string around your
