Similar designs from both cylindrical (top) and flat (bottom) ceramic stamps. "The design was originally used on gourds--- a stepped-fret (Xicalcoliuhqui) design which in this case is combined with the spiral motif. Both stamps were found in Mexico City.", (above, from "Design Motifs of Ancient Mexico", by Jorge Enciso, page 32)
