Bird man figure
Standing human figure with elongated head carved from reddish brown wood. In front of the forehead there are two triangles with their tips set against each other. Two vertical ears rise up from the head. The seeds of a small, black and red fruit have been inserted as eyes. At the back of the head there is a hanging rectangular plate, which probably represents hair or a train. The figure's hands are raised in front of the body. At the back of the figure there is a cow horn-shaped tail.
