Middle Horizon Wood Figure

Middle Horizon Wood Figure refers to carved wooden sculptural objects produced by cultures of the Middle Horizon period in the Andean region of South America, approximately 600, 1000 CE. These figures are associated with the Wari and Tiwanaku civilizations, which exerted broad cultural and artistic influence across the Andes during this era. Such works are known for their stylized anthropomorphic forms, geometric surface decoration, and ritual or ceremonial function, and they appear occasionally in major auction house sales as pre-Columbian antiquities.
