Fertility dolls have long been associated with femininity, fertility, and motherhood. Young women frequently carry fertility dolls on their backs like a child in hopes that it helps them to conceive. Pregnant women also have them in hopes that it ensures they have a safe delivery and a healthy and happy child. In modern times, especially in the west, they have come to be symbols of good luck.
The fertility doll also has a similar shape similar to that of the Egyptian Ankh, a symbol of life, and the Egyptian Djed which is a symbol associated with Ausar/Osiris. The large head on the fertility doll is symbolic of a woman’s womb. Different cultures in Africa have fertility dolls of varied designs. The most popular and well-known fertility dolls are those of the Fanti ethnic group.
