I feel kinship with these artists from the Veraguas culture in Panama from somewhere around 600-800AD. No one creates these works with such care unless they're huge monster nerds!! We've got: serpent headed guy, monster guy with snake, more little monsters including ones witg super long spiky tails, a squad of round dudes, two dog-like monsters with a two headed snake, long fingers giving birth to a chompy guy , two beaked things looking out of a porthole, a scorpion, a monster giving birth to snakes?, and a praying mantis. Who made these and can I go back in time to hang out with them???
