totemic figures

Totemism is the most "simple" of religious organizations and thus is linked to the clan, which would be the most simple of social organizations.

Totemism is indeed present in many clan-based societies, where totems can be seen as a “spirit animal" quality for the clans they belong to.   The Butiken-Ikolu artifacts found in Türkiye at a site near Pamukkale in the Cappadocia region is one of Türkiye's deep tuff valleys, and underground cities dating back to prehistoric times.
