S+F Good find,thanks!!!!

Thanks for this link! I enjoyed it very much.

An excerpt about the stringed instrument:

A scale replica of the instrument depicted on the vessel was first heard in 1998, at a Dumbarton Oaks conference on pre-Columbian music and iconography.

I had never heard of Dumbarton Oaks and was pleased to find that it's in Washington, D.C., which is near where I live: Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection.

I wanna see a jaguar dance!! I searched YouTube and there's one for the Aztecs, but not the Maya.
