William Fagg a écrit à propos de cette statuette : "Les Luntu vivent parmi les Luluwa et sont historiquement liés; leur art est assez similaire et influencé par les Luluwa, mais plus cubiste et anguleux, et beaucoup plus rare. Le remarquable abdomen conique de cette statuette est probablement l'équivalent cubiste de l'abdomen souple Luluwa d'où est issu le large nombril. Les scarifications asymétriques au-dessus des yeux sont conformes aux pratiques Luluwa."
William Fagg wrote about this fine figure: "The Luntu live among the Luluwa and are historically connected with them; their art is also similar to and influenced by that of the Luluwa, but is more cubistic and angular, and very much more rare. The remarkably conical abdomen of this figure is probably the 'cubist' equivalent of the Luluwa 'soft' abdomen from which issues the large, undulant umbilical hernia. The asymmetrical scarification over the eyes conforms with the Luluwa practise.
