The excised head and surrounding volutes are reminiscent of the Yaya-Mama style. Redrawn and adapted by Stanislava and Sergio Chávez from an illustration by Alconini (1995:Figures 7-8). (b) Circular head with appendages recurving at right angles on the headband of a human head effigy vessel in "Classic" Tiahuanaco style. Redrawn by Stanislava Chávez with the right side appendages reconstructed from Querejazu (1983:Figure on page 187).
