content: Carved commemorative figure of a man. Much weathered. Inset slivers of wood representing teeth. Probably painted at one time--remnants of red paint. Purchased by the donor in Addis Ababa, in 1974 from Gelebu Assengogo, who at the time indicated the piece was from Gochä and could be ca. 80 years old. Catalog number E433003 is a similar figure from the same village that was purchased at the same time. For additional information, see the accession file.
