This photo shows two stone carvings half-buried in dirt. Both have rounded faces with simple, smooth features—big eyes, a small nose, and a straight mouth. The tops of the stones are hollowed out, like they might have held something. The surface looks rough, with patches of moss or lichen clinging to the rock. The photo was taken in Central America, near a place called Copan. The label calls these "sculptured stones," and they look like they’ve been there a long time. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more objects like these.
