This much larger than life sculpture depicts a Huichol Indian in native dress. The sculpture is located in the small Huichol village of Zitakua which is now a tourist destination. The large statue depicts the Indian with feathers on his head and some feathers in his hand in what appears an offering. There is no sign at the site about the artist, title or date.
