This chapter explores figurines in a variety of media from the Olmec sacred site at La Venta. It examines the scaled relationships within a series of figurines: all are by definition small, but they are not equally small, something that can be hard to keep in mind when we usually see figurines in relative isolation or as disembodied images on page or screen, abstracted from all scaled referents. Crucial is that Mesoamerican figurines are almost universally scaled to the human body, so that they can be grasped with a single hand. Many bear patterns of wear corresponding to sites of repeated touch. Touch was fundamental to the making of figurines, and also to their subsequent use: many cannot stand independently, and instead require a kind of affective caretaking. These issues have fundamental significance for the play of scales at La Venta, where many monumental art forms, from pyramids to stelae, also engaged with matters of scale.
