The cane likely combines practical use (as a walking stick) with deep symbolic meaning. The snake represents wisdom or transformation, the mirror signifies self-awareness or protection, and the striped cap could denote status or a natural connection. Together, it might have been crafted for a person of significance, perhaps a healer, leader, or ritual participant – in a tradition valuing these symbols.
