An anthropomorphic mask, also described as a “false head,” from the Chancay culture, which developed on Peru’s central coast between 1100 and 1470 CE. Held by Chile’s National Museum of Natural History, the object combines cotton cloth, paint, copper sheets, wool, and an upper arrangement of textiles, gauze, and wooden pieces. Its varied materials shaped the conservation and restoration decisions described by Nieves Acevedo and Eliana Durán in 2004.
