    Any ideas on what kind of warrior this statuette depicts, origin, age, etc. would be greatly appreciated

    I am not really seeing this as a depiction of a Mesoamerican warrior. Doesn't quite fit with Roman or Greek either. Facial features look modern European/American so not a lot of help there. Perhaps a lot of artistic license was taken with this?
