Location: Monument 11 was discovered by Stirling during the 1938-39 field season on the surface of Structure 3 (Mound 1C)(Stirling 1943:23). Monument 11 was moved to the site museum at its dedication in 1975.
Associations: Monument 10.
Condition: Fragment, no detail on remaining portion.
Photographs: Present report, Plate 19; Stirling 1943a: Plate 9c.
Drawings: None.
Carved Areas: Sculpture in the round.
References: Stirling 1943a; Stirling 1965; de la Fuente 1973.
Material: This monument was not tested by Williams. However, there is nothing about it to suggest that its material is any different than that of Monument 1.
Dimensions: Height 43 cm, Width 43 cm.
Description: Monument 11 is a broken amorphous block with a projection near the break.
Remarks: Stirling describes Monument 11 as "the head and shoulders of a stone figure" (Stirling 1943:23). I cannot identify any features which would lead me to believe that this sculpture is figural. A more likely possibility is that Monument 11 is the corner of a table top throne with one leg attached.
