VOTIVE OF STILT-WALKERS | Photo by Ann Cady, 2024 | ©2026 Norman Daly Art
The artifact is comprised of a rectangular, textured stone slab featuring intricate carvings of abstract symbols and shapes, reminiscent of ancient writing or hieroglyphs, meticulously etched into its rough surface; the slab exhibits a border framing the artistic symbolism, and the overall tone is an earthy beige, creating a contrast between the raised, smooth carvings and the rough, indented background, suggesting a historical or archaeological significance, possibly meant to convey messages or stories from a bygone era.
