This carved, wooden staff features an anthropomorphic, janiform finial, a smooth midsection, and a spiked base. The two opposing figures are a pair of pregnant women, both of whom have their hands placed upon their protruding bellies. Their facial features share a close resemblance to one another: they have small eyes set in almond-shaped ocular cavities, finely-detailed coiffures, and vertical lines running down their cheeks.
