What is Ikenga vs. Reliquary Figure Analysis about?

The document compares and contrasts two wooden carvings: an Ikenga shrine figure and a Reliquary figure (byeri). Both carvings would likely be owned by powerful people and feature elongated, abstract forms with an emphasis on the head. However, the Ikenga symbolizes status and wealth for the living, while the Reliquary figure provides spiritual protection of ancestors and was used in initiation rituals.
