Amulet of highly polished, dark bluish green jadeite in the shape of a bat with 
spread wings, which are covered with incised designs. The symmetrical designs on 
both wings each represent a human face enframed by a V-shaped band with guilloche 
patterns. At the upper end of each wing there is the head of an animal with up- 
turned nose, and below this there are groups of parallel incised lines by which the 
artist apparently designated the fingers. (Compare the bats on Pl. XLI.) This 
object represents undoubtedly the most perfect specimen of workmanship in precious 
stone ever found in Costa Rica. Its weight is 11 ounces, length 15.3 cm., height
