Answer:
The recurring themes of the Djenné sculptures are the squatting position of the human figures, the serpent, wrapped around itself, and the zigzag-shaped decorative motifs over the characters.
The serpent takes us back to its mythical origin, and speaks of a girl who was buried alive in honor of the sacred python.
Anthropomorphic terracotta represent figures in three positions: standing, sitting and squatting.
In female terracotta, the breasts stand out, practically the only element that distinguishes them from the masculine ones, because the faces are quite undefined.
