We just learned about the Serpent Labret with Articulated Tongue jewelry worn by Aztec people in their lip.
Another sculpture from ancient America is the Double Headed Serpent, made around 1500 AD in what is now Mexico.
The sculpture is a wavy snake with a head on either end.
It is made out of wood, turquoise, pine resin, shells and other things.
On the inside it is a wooden snake sculpture, and then turquoise stones were broken into tiny pieces and glued to the wooden body using pine resin.
It has holes for eyes, and some sticky beeswax in it so people think there might have been jewels for eyes before they fell out.
This was a sculpture made by the ancient Aztecs.
