Presentation by Michael Palomino (2011)

Wise men with dust of stars and the moon
A wise man is handling a magnifying glass and eggs of the creation. The CD of the museum indicates that these would be zodiac signs. At the right on the big stone there are two wise men blowing dust of stars into the sky, and the moon is in the middle (indication of the museum of Eugenia Cabrera).

Here is another stone showing a wise man with a magnifying glass and an egg of the creation.
It seems strange that the wise men are always shown with their profile. It seems that the natives never were allowed to look directly into their eyes. With the animals it's another thing. There are heads of the animals also painted in a frontal view.

Wise men with the sun and with a litter
