"These four ""fat folk"" figures were found in Apse 2. They may represent a later stage in the design of obese figures because they have no identifiable gender and have been reduced to standard poses and body forms. They could embody gods, goddesses, or leaders, or they might merely be symbols of prosperity. However, the fact that their heads were removable (many heads have been found separately) may imply that they were interchangeable so that individual features of different gods or leaders could be represented. Then again, maybe it was just safer to add the fragile, free-standing head after the heavy body had been moved into place."
