One of a pair of long-nosed god maskettes of copper unearthed in 1895 from Grant Mound (8dU14) by Clarence B. Moore. They were worn as ear ornaments, and each measures approximately 5 by 6 cm. The nose on Specimen #1 (pictured) is now mostly broken off, but it apparently measured at least 10.8 cm (4.25 in) according to Stephen Williams and John Goggin (1956, page 24, in The Missouri Archaeologist, vol. 18, no. 3).

Shadows and Reflections:
Florida’s Lost People
© 1998 by Florida Anthropological Society and the Florida Department of State Division of Historical Resources. Produced by Chaos Productions. Length: 28 min
Before Spanish explorers arrived 500 years ago, Florida was home to a variety of sophisticated and colorful native societies, including diverse groups such as the Calusa, Apalachee, Timucua, and Tequesta. In this film, artist Ted Morris follows his quest to recreate on canvas the lives and spirits of these vanished people. Archaeological evidence from the land and from below the clear waters combines with facial reconstructions and early historical accounts to paint a fascinating picture of people in tune with the subtropical environment.
