    Statue representing a primordial ancestor in the form of a standing female figure. The arms are separated from the torso. A line of successive small holes forming a U extends from the breasts to above the sex. The mouth is slightly forward and half-open. The half-closed eyes are shaped like coffee beans. Traditional scarification marks are carved into the bridge of the nose. There are holes at the top of the head, in the ears and under the genitals. The feet are treated with originality.
