Pre-Columbian Woven Textile with Human Motif - Archaeological Artifact #3349984 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white illustration depicts a narrow, fringed textile band, likely from the Andean region, created using fine bead or fiber weaving techniques. Central to the design are two stylized human figures standing side-by-side, holding hands-a motif often interpreted as signifying alliance, marriage, or ceremonial partnership. Flanking them are bold diagonal bands and a smaller isolated figure on the right, all rendered in high-contrast monochrome, suggesting ritual or elite status use.

Used in academic publications, museum digital collections, and cultural heritage websites to illustrate pre-Hispanic textile artistry, especially from Paracas or Nazca traditions (c. 800 BCE-100 CE). Matches user intent for historical artifact research, anthropology study, or textile conservation interest.
