<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 443902, member: 308"]Hello everyone! I've finally decided to clean out some of my storage rooms. I've had these kicking around in one room or another for years and figured if anyone would know what these are it would be y'all. They are made of clay or mud. The one that still has his bottom teeth is about 3" tall and his friend is about 4" tall. The 3" one has lost his top teeth. The 4" one only ever had bottom teeth which are missing. This figure has a hole in the top. I'm sure I didn't buy them deliberately - I think they came in a box lot. Are they just a class project or is there a culture known for this type of art work? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!</p><p>Don</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]156051[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156052[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156053[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156054[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156055[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156056[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
