The Golden Idol Mug

This mug is shaped like a golden South American fertility idol giving birth. Lidded with a metallic gold glaze. Based on an actual greenstone carving in the pre-Columbian collection at Dumbarton Oaks. The artifact is presumed to depict the Aztec goddess Tlazolteotl. Scientific analysis by the Smithsonian, though, shows the Dumbarton figure to be a probable fake from the late 1800s. Other scholars are less certain, but express similar doubts. The golden version of the idol was made famous in the 1981 film, Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, where Jones retrieved it from a booby-trapped pedestal. After the first run of fifty, the Witch Doctor made a second smaller run of 25 to help fill the demand.
