Description
Ancient Anthropomorphic Stone Sculpture from Papua New Guinea Oceania. 19th Century Ritual Stone
Superb anthropomorphic sculpture in carved stone. The sculpture represents a kneeling man/monkey holding a container in his hands.
The sculpture was certainly used as a ritual stone because it shows traces of burns.
It dates from the 19th century or earlier.
