Sea Lion Pup Vessel
Moche culture, Peru, 200ā850 CE
Ceramic & slip, 19.7 x 15.5 x 16 cm (7 3/4 x 6 1/8 x 6 5/16 in.)
The Cleveland Museum of Art 2014.375
āSea lions commonly appear in Moche art as effigy vessels, like this appealing pup, or in complex scenes that often show them as the targets of human hunters. They may have been prized in part for the beach pebbles found in their stomachs; modern Peruvian folk healers consider such pebbles to have powerful medicinal qualities. Also, colonial-period natives believed that sea lions carried the dead to off-shore islands, an idea that could date to Moche times.ā

āThis vessel shows a swimming sea lion, an animal commonly found on islands in the Pacific Ocean close to Peru. Apart from being an important source of food for Andean people, sea lions commonly swallow beach pebbles, which they later vomit up. These stones were considered to have powerful medicinal qualities, and could be ground to make herbal remedies in ancient Peru.ā

ā ļøCORRECTIONā ļø
the caption originally said "st. lucy holding her eyes", which was incorrect. i mistook st. odile of alsace for st. lucy because their iconography is so similar.
odile's story is quite different from lucy's though. her deal was that she was born blind and later miraculously recovered her sight when she was baptised. so no martyrdom for her š
here she is in a painting by lucas cranach the elder (1506):
