Title
Italiano: Mali. Statua Djenne.
Description
Italiano: STATUA - Figura di serpente acciambellato.

In Mali, nel triangolo Ke Macina, Mopti, Djenne le ricerche archeologiche hanno portato alla luce in contesto abitativo un insieme di statue di terracotta datate fra IX e XV secolo. È probabile che fossero collocate su altari famigliari che venissero offerte nei rituali propiziatori che venivano eseguiti in occasio ne della csotruzione di una nuova abitazione o che servissero come offerte votive per ottenere la guardigione dalle malattie. Invece della frontalità, della disposizione simmetrica degli arti e dei volumni geometrici in cui viene scomposto il corpo (elementi prevalenti nella scultura di epoca più reecente della stessaa area) troviamo invece fluidità organica, una molteplicità di posture, composizione di scene.

Oltre alle figure antropomorfe vi sono anche figure animali come ippopotami, elefanti e serpenti o combinazioni antropozoomorfe. igure di serpenti sono frequenti anche nelle sculture antropomorfe, rappresentati nell'atto di mordere, avvolgersi attorno al corpo o penetrarlo.
