This mother-and-child figurine may be a metaphor for generational continuity.
The hair of this hollow, mold-made, female figurine originally was arranged in two projections atop the head. She carries an identical, small figure interpreted as a child. Thus, the figurine may be a metaphor for generational continuity.
