Twin figure
Twin figure made of reddish brown wood, smoothed and rubbed with reddish clay.

There are short scarification marks on the forehead and cheeks and rich decorative scars on the body and arms. The pedestal and figure have been fashioned out of one piece of wood. The figure is wearing a glass bead necklace.
