They have four perforations, for suspension or fastening; two at the end of one of the arms and two at the opposite arm. Conte style. This combination of square cross and central circle is of great antiquity and widespread in the iconography of pre-Hispanic America. These quincunxes are generally interpreted as the graphic embodiment of a conceptualization of the universe composed of four cardinal directions plus the center.MG
