Teotihuacan Ocelot

The Teotihuacan Ocelot or ''Teotihuacán Ocelot'' is the name of an alabaster sculpture of a feline found at the ancient Mesoamerican site of Teotihuacan, central Mexico. Discovered in the late nineteenth century. it was purchased by the British Museum in 1926.〔British Museum Collection ()〕
==Description==
This unique sculpture is an offering vessel in the form of a recumbent ocelot. Carved from a single piece of prestigious alabaster, the figure reflects the geometric style and pattern of contemporary funerary masks and architecture from Teotihuacan. The eyes would have once been inlaid with shells or precious stones and the depression on the feline's back would have held the temple offering - some have conjectured that this may have included human hearts removed for ritual sacrifices.〔British Museum Highlights ()〕
