Depicting a pregnant female, this carving is very similar to that of the Hopi with the bent knees. This Oaku doll came from one of the Rio Grande pueblos. One of its purposes was to promote conception. A woman having trouble conceiving would carry the doll wrapped in her clothing, and would place it in the small of the back or in the front. There are signs that the figure was painted at one time and had hair attached on the back of the head.
