In 1928 Lt-Colonel Bob Dent-Young was major exploration functions in the Nigerian town of Nok. Near to the town and the Jos Level area one of his miners discovered a little item of terra cotta statue. Later, terra cottas spread at various absolute depths throughout the Sahel grasslands were uncovered. The art types variety in dimension from little charms to life-size results. These days several products of them can be seen at the Barakat Household Art gallery. One of them is value of our unique interest, a 31x 16 cm statue of a seated several.

Memorialized in clay-based, this several symbolizes a couple of conjoined, or Siamese, double babies who creates the doll unrivaled and breath-taking. Conjoined double babies is one of the most rare types of twinning and would certainly be considered as a most threatening occasion whenever and in any group. This statue records the vision of this organic wonder. However, there is something else too. It is well known that conjoined double babies is always monozygotic, therefore, either men or women. Nevertheless, the specialist showed one double as women (with breasts) and the other as men (appears to be higher than the women co-twin).

The placed several discuss one leg and are linked at the chest. Although they use two jewellery in the top side, the pendant seems to be as one in the returning. This magnificent statue must have recognized a most awesome and holy couple of creatures in the the past. Moreover M. L. Marínez Frías views the awesome Nok doll as a reflection the very first known situation of conjoined double babies with different genders in record.

Why did the specialist signify one double women and the other male? It cannot be conjoined, monozygotic double babies with different sexes! A strange historical lifestyle - the only logical response might come to our thoughts - created a magical statue for spiritual requirements without any objective of having it been linked with the truth.
