seated figure with mortar catalogue. The seated female figure has a vessel between her legs and is holding a mortar. While one leg lies flat on the ground when the foot is returned, the other is bent and set upright. The black hair, cut horizontally across the forehead and sculpted on the sides, falls over the shoulder blades. The face is dominated by the tribal insignia. Raised arms with roughly notched fingers realistically embrace the rammer. All parts of the figure are well proportioned, including the painted upper and lower legs. The toes are notched. The head and neck appear lighter than the other parts of the figure, which appear to be covered with a grey-yellowish surface paint. Apart from the painted armbands, knee and thigh rings, the statuette lacks any body painting. Index card : Seated female clay figurine with tall vessel and rammer
