Revered by the Lobi people of Burkina Faso and Ghana, these sculptures depict spirits known as Thil and are often placed in shrines dedicated to them. The Lobi believe these Bateba figures hold special powers and are seen as superior to humans. Measuring 9" W x 18" D x 17.5" H without the stand and 20.5" W x 7.25" W x 19" H with the stand, this rare and intricately crafted sculpture is a testament to the belief and artistry of the Lobi people.
