This replica of a Mayan sculpture, is featured on a museum wall in Cozumel, Mexico.

Mayan artists used stone tools to sculpt in limestone or volcanic tuff from 250-900 A.D.
The most common subjects in Mayan art are mortal rulers and supernatural beings.

In the 21st century, approximately 1.5 million Mayans live in Mexico, and more than three times that, have Maya origins.
Mayan people have often been described as having " heart-shaped " faces, as depicted in the sculpture.
