Dogon Standing Star Gazer Figure

This one appears to be hailing a cab from another galaxy.

A standing star gazer figure from the Dogon peoples of Mali, West Africa, made in the 20th century from hand-forged copper and iron. Forged figures served Dogon altars as offerings in metal, and the sky they reach toward has a leading role in Dogon creation accounts, as recorded by outside ethnographers whose conclusions are still argued over. One arm shoots out nearly level with the head, the other bends at the elbow and drops. Below, a long wiry body tilts over kinked knees to a heavy little bell of a base. Thirty-two inches wide and sixty-three and a half high.

It has not, so far, been answered.
