I can't help but think this is some kind of prehistoric fetish.
7315017There are multiple theories. Including one that these were made by pregnant women to track their pregnancies.
7315010Honesty, I just seen an old doll.
7315010Looking at it, the fact that she is rotund could represent pregnancy
7332505I don't think so. I'm no expert. But she looks obese to me, not heavily pregnant.
7332514Like I said, COULD represent pregnancy, or perhaps her large belly may represent having a lot of food or the like
7332646I don't think "represent" is the right word. It's not some abstract shape, that could represent something. It's a human body (aside from the head). And a large belly from being pregnant, looks different then large belly from bring obese.
