Bateba statuette of the Lobi people, Burkina Faso
The Lobi live in southwestern Burkina Faso and northern Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana. they are extremely resistant to any form of centralized political authority. Instead their communities are based on the laws of God. The central figure in each Lobi community is the religious specialist named the Thildar. this soothsayer is responsible for communicating with the spirits that govern the community and protecting members of each family from accidents, illness, violence and all the multiple threats people encounter in the hostile environment of West Africa . The carved Lobi represent the spirits of nature they called Thil. Each of these figures displays different gestures or postures, some of them can have two or even three heads, some female figures carry a baby under the arm. These unique characteristics represent the particular talent or power of the spiritual being they embody. A figure raising an arm places a roadblock at the entrance of the malicious spirits at the family home.
