A Dogon figure from Mali is a wooden sculpture representing ancestors, spirits, or mythological beings that served as spiritual intermediaries in Dogon religious practices. These figures were used in shrines to pray to the supreme deity Amma and to invoke spiritual assistance, often symbolizing the continuity of life, fertility, and the importance of ancestors for the community.
