An Ewe/Dangme related sculpture, Southern part of Ghana, but according of the last owner collected in the North of Ghana close to the Lobi-Wala, Wa region, similar like the PramPram, influenced by the Moba, the migration of ethnic groups, which are well known in the South, went in the North/South direction. The faces on the abdomen of these figures lets us assume that they are fertility figures; light wood with remnants of kaolin.
