A ceramic Aztec death whistle modeled after ritual sound instruments used in pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures, where such whistles were employed in ceremonies and warfare to produce intense, human-like screams. This piece features carved motifs inspired by Aztec symbolism and skull imagery. When blown, it emits an extremely loud, shrill scream-like sound that can exceed 120 decibels, reflecting the intimidating acoustic effect these objects were historically known for.
