    Statue representing an ancestor in the form of a standing male figure. The overall look is punctuated by a play of angled lines and black and yellow bichromy. The powerful neck supports a slightly tilted head. The half-open mouth allows the breath to pass through, while the expression of the eyes is accentuated by black eyebrows that stand out against the yellow of the face. A high hairstyle lengthens the statue's overall appearance.
    The presence of sex and testicles marks the clan's lineage.
    Wood with worn patina, pigments, erosion at base and cracks.
