Figure of woman who appears sitting on a stool to enhance the importance of this ancestor. His hands are missing, broken and lost through times and displacements. There's a crack on the left side of the head. These cracks are frequent in African wood that reaches Europe because of the difference in humidity. It retains remains of the kaolin libations.
