Images of a person (an anthropomorphic figure) are widespread motive in the animal style presented in many different variations. Whom could these finds represent? The images interpretations are contradictory. According to one of the versions a person depicted with the head of an animal could be a shaman. If a person image was a leading one without any zoomorphic additions, then he could personify a leader or another important figure in social life, for example, a blacksmith.
