Doguu

Yes, yes, it's Doguumon/Shakoumon, the Digimon. But ignore that for a second:

 

Doguu are a particular type of clay figure produced during Japan's Jomon period (14,000-400 BC), waaay back in the annals of prehistory. They are strange, strange little sacred objects, often used as proof of the "ancient aliens" theory... though they were probably just fertility goddess statues.
