The figures of this kind are shaped differently, some are plastic and well executed, while others lack hands and feet or maybe just consists of a head on a long pin. Most of the men are naked or just wearing a belt around his waist. Some wear jewelry in the form of arm or neck rings. The face is often shaped with a cap shaped hair parted in the middle and hair combed down along the sides. Many have a strong mustache and a pointing beard. We do not know who the characters are representing - perhaps gods.
