Standing Figure

Bahía

5th–1st century BCE

The Bahía people occupied the coast of Manabí Province, where they continued the ceramic tradition of depicting human figures that had started 2,000 years earlier in the region. Their figures vary from hand-modeled to heavy mold-made examples and others that have mold-made faces and hand-modeled bodies. Some have colored and/or applied clothing and ornaments. Associated with the site of Los Esteros in central Manabí, this figure is highly stylized with a flat, sexless body and flipperlike arms. Its angular face has large, applied coffeebean eyes and a very prominent aquiline nose with a heavy nose ring. The meaning of such figures is unknown. One Los Esteros cache contained broken Bahía-style figurines apparently deliberately smashed. Clearly a votive offering of some sort, its intended purpose is conjectural.

Entonces el beso conocía el norte y el sur, el este y el oeste de toda cartografía como si antes de labio en medio de la lluvia hubiera sido rosa de los vientos o brújula del corsario de los siete mares. Nada estaba preparado –dormían las leyendas su sueño abisal – y sin embargo no cabía margen alguno de error: cada noche atracaba en su alborada, cada zozobra en su bahía, cada deseo en su rompeolas. Así era el amor, volver a casa con la red llena de certidumbres nunca un naufragio en alta muerte silenciosa como ahora.
