The Wila Kala stela from Khonko Wankane, Jesús de Machaca. The back side is badly preserved, but the narrow sides are decorated with motifs similar to the Jinchun Kala stela. The rectangle below the mouth may represent a labrette. Drawn by Stanislava Chávez based on Rydén (1947:Figures 31, 33a,b) and photographs by Karen and Sergio Chávez.
