Even the rock art from Uraca depicts human trophy heads!

This scene is from Toro Muerto, one of the largest rock art sites in the world. It shows a feline creature with a human trophy head dangling from its mouth. The "trophy taster" theme appears in ceramic and textile decorations of coastal Peruvian cultures, and finding the theme repeated here shows that the Uraca community shared these religious themes and ideas. Feline imagery is common throughout prehistoric art of the Americas, and it is often associated with power, warfare, and death.
