Female Figurine — Yoruba Ibedji — Nigeria
Prominent breasts, straight arms, facing forward. A longitudinal slit runs across the torso—signs of wear. The ibeji refers to the twin figures of the Yoruba tradition of Nigeria and Benin. They were associated with remembrance and the ritual care given to a deceased twin.
