Dogū are ancient clay figurines associated with the Jomon period of Japan, which lasted from approximately 14,000 BCE to 300 BCE. These figurines are often characterized by their distinct styles, with many featuring exaggerated forms, intricate patterns, and sometimes enigmatic facial features. The specific depiction of a Dogū with palms pressed together is thought to represent a gesture of prayer or perhaps a connection to some form of spiritual or ritualistic practice.
