Throne stool of Oba Eresoyen Low-poly 3D model

Eresoyen's throne, modeled after Esigie's 16th-century throne stool, embodies the Benin Kingdom's worldview. An entwined python links the divine order of civilization (represented by the seat) to the natural world (symbolized by the base). The sun, moon, and cross on the seat signify the creation of the cosmic order, while ceremonial swords reflect the king's authority within this order. In the center, blacksmith tools—anvil, bellows, pliers, and hammer—represent civilization. The base, depicting motifs from the forest, includes sacrificial monkeys and the trunk hand, an elephant's trunk holding leaves, symbolizing the occult power of Osun found in plants. Plastic frogs and carved Portuguese heads reference the water realm of the sea god, Olokun.
