How were jenne sculptures made? what material was most commonly used?

The Jenne or Djenne sculptures were made by hand using clay mixed with grog or crushed potsherds. The most commonly used material was fired clay or terracotta. The Djenne sculptures were made in several different figures and the equestrian is the most common figure. The purpose of this sculptures still remains unknown.

Ithink the men do it because the women work very hard, especially during childbirth. as for whether textiles are a "female-only" art, certainly not! there is no such thing as a job the other gender can't do (pardon my bluntness).

i believe the answer is  the similarity is that both are sacrifices which have the same purpose and sacrifice - jesus christ, but the difference is in offering of that sacrifice.

 

the similarity is that both are sacrifices which have the same purpose (repenting our sins) and sacrifice - jesus christ.  the difference is in the way of the offering that sacrifice. the sacrifice of jesus on the calvary is sacrifice of his actual living body and blood, but the sacrifice of the mass is the sacrifice of the jesus through bread (body) and blood (wine). in the sacrifice on calvary jesus was offered for us; while at mass he offers himself through us.
