This
Maya mask shows the different stages of life as part of a never ending
circle of human evolution through life and the afterlife as it was understood
by the Mayas. The mask has three layered faces, each representing one
particular stage of life. The inner face represents the beginning of life at
birth. The middle face is the most important one since it represents the adult
stage when the person comes into his full potential and most of his life
experiences happened. The outer or third face represents the end of earthly
life.
This sacred time was viewed by the Maya as the end of one cycle and the
beginning of another one. Death was followed by lavish preparations for the
next life.
