Can you identify this artifact?


I found this clay bottle many years ago, in a little thrift shop in Brooklyn, New York. Over the years I’ve tried to learn about its provenance but so far, I’ve not been able to find any information about it. It looks like an Aztec artifact. I think that the design elements on the back are Aztec and the face is vaguely pre-Columbian Mexican but I don’t know enough to say with any certainty.

Here’s a link to a couple of photos of the item on Pinterest. Any information would be appreciated. Please help me solve the mystery.
