The Veracruz culture is named for the modern Gulf Coast region of Mexico, where remains of this ancient civilization have been excavated. Monumental sculptures by Veracruz artists of the Classic period (about 600 B.C.E. to 900 C.E.) are the largest ceramic figures known from ancient times. They are hollow and were designed with various openings to allow heated air to escape so that they would not explode as they were fired. It was also necessary to reinforce the sculptures structurally so that they would not collapse before the clay had hardened. Because no ancient Veracruz kilns have been found, it is thought that such sculptures were fired in open pits. Although the identity of this female deity figure is uncertain, it may have been part of an elaborate burial offering of sculptures of deities, deity impersonators, and human attendants depicting religious rituals.
