Beyond the notable differences of the facial and body painting, the two dancers are unique because of the unusual style in which the hair and skirts are represented. With deep incisions made with a gouge and placed evenly in rows, a material easily recognized by the ancient population of the Valley of Mexico was intended, but it is a mystery to us today. We can only note that it does not result in the appearance of fluttering skirts, but rather they appear heavy. What is certain is that the figurines characterize individual women as is usually the case; they appear to allude to a certain type of dancer recognizable by the particular attire.
