Collection of Pre-columbian art
« on: May 30, 2012, 05:45:18 am »
I have a fairly large collection of pre-columbian art, mainly from El Salvador consisting of pots, jade and stone ornaments and axes, figurines, wistles, bottles...  Never been published.  I see other users are putting on this site collections of non-coin items for others to appreciate, but I wonder how useful this is, as most visitors are antique coin collectors.  Your opinion would be appreciated.

For myself please put them on. I love pre-Colombian items and all the stuff you can tell us about them.

Only been to Mexico to see Tulum,Chichen Itza, Coba & Ek Balam from the Yucatan.

I know nothing about this, but I'd love to see it.

I think the consensus of folks here is for you to show them. If there was an issue showing such items something would have been said by now about others uploading their photos. Personally, I would love to see them.

Thank you all for the positive replies.  I'm starting to digitize the old slides I made of these objects (before the computer era) and will put the first items up very soon.
