TL;DR: There are major contextural differences between the two bird forms carved on the pillars of the Acosta reconstruction of the Quetzalpapalotl courtyard as discussed by the authors, and the frontal bird on the west side and its distinctive border decorations suggest differences of meaning from the profile bird representation which occupies the remaining three sides.
Abstract: There are major contextural differences between the two bird forms carved on the pillars of the Acosta reconstruction of the Quetzalpapalotl courtyard. The frontal bird on the west side and its distinctive border decorations suggest differences of meaning from the profile bird representation which occupies the remaining three sides. Sejourne's argument that the carvings represent two views of the same bird is refuted in the light of careful visual comparisons of the forms and ornithological examination. Other iconographic research on bird meaning in the context of Teotihuacan culture is discussed followed by an interpretation of the meaning of the two bird images.

TL;DR: In this article, the late polychrome periods of Cocle, Veraguas, and Azuero were investigated and the earliest ceramic and preceramic periods on the other hand.
Abstract: Previously published gravesites in Central Panama concern the late polychrome periods of Cocle, Veraguas, and Azuero on one hand, and the earliest ceramic and preceramic periods on the other. Cerro Largo has been test‐sampled and appears to yield artifacts of an intermediate nature and may contribute to the development of pre‐polychrome sequences in this region.
