Hey, how do English speakers call this thing?

I’m working on order, so I wanted to make pattern to use it later. But I can’t find how to call it in English :cry:

If it’s the statue I believe Zhdun, but I could be wrong

The other thing standing up is a signpost.

that thing is nightmare fuel sitting in front of a signpost
it looks like an elephant seal with arms which is creepy
ā€œHomunculus Loxodontus is a statue by Dutch artist Margriet van Breevoort. It was made for the Leiden University Medical Center and installed in the spring of 2016.ā€

From wiki he seems to have a couple of names.
