Archaeological evidence relates the
figure to a group of images portraying attendant, animal trainers,
and performing artists. Often such statues reveal facial features or
dress styles native to the nomads active in China’s northern border
regions such as the Xiongnu minority (Huns) of the Warring States
period.
