She wears an elaborate hairstyle and is lavishly decorated with scarification marks on her face and body. According to the Baule's sense of beauty, this figure is the idealised representation of a woman. It is the embodiment of a spouse from the otherworldly world, whom the Baule believe that they can influence the fortunes of the living. These figures were usually kept on a small altar in the bedroom, and sacrifices such as coins or eggs were offered to them. Continent: Africa
