Green Stone Heart

In the Nahuatl language, yaoyoti is the human heart, and it was considered the most precious thing that man could offer the gods. This magnificent sculpture, carved in green stone, also has a fantastic face, with eyes, eyebrows and fangs. This object is part of Scan The World. Scan the World is a non-profit initiative introduced by MyMiniFactory, through which we are creating a digital archive of fully 3D printable sculptures, artworks and landmarks from across the globe for the public to access for free. Scan the World is an open source, community effort, if you have interesting items around you and would like to contribute, email [e-mail] to find out how you can help.在纳瓦特尔语（Nahuatl）中，yaoyoti指代人类的心脏，且曾被视为人类所能敬献于众神的最珍贵之物。这件以青石雕琢而成的恢弘雕塑，亦拥有极具表现力的面部造型，配有双眼、眉骨与獠牙。该藏品为Scan The World项目的收录内容之一。 Scan The World是由MyMiniFactory推出的非营利性倡议项目，旨在搭建面向公众免费开放的数字档案库，收录全球各地可完全3D打印的雕塑、艺术作品与地标建筑。本项目采用开源模式，由社区共同运营维护。若您身边存有值得分享的藏品并希望参与贡献，可发送邮件至[e-mail]，了解具体参与方式。
