Very out of place to encounter such an artifact. I encountered a power figure once in an East Coast seaside clothing boutique-y type place. Very out of place to encounter such an artifact.

It is a congo statue for protection, strength and Ase (power, life force, etc.). In palo, some people use it to do negative work but in Ifa (checkout Ifatradition.org & spiritualtools.org), they are used to guard, to protect against death and to reflect any harmful or bad energies sent at you. You have intuition and a calling and I think you should see who crowns your head! That is a Sigidi. It is a congo statue for protection, strength and Ase (power, life force, etc.).
