No.

It's a long story.

The two conjoined figures are Fuxi and Nuwa, a brother and sister who, according to a Chinese foundation myth, were the only survivors of a great flood. Charged with repopulating the world, Fuxi and Nuwa created vast numbers of clay figures, which they were able to bring to life with some divine assistance.

I guess they were similar to Noah and his Wife, Mrs. Noah.

What is interesting is Fuxi and Nusa do not repopulate in a normal biological way like Mr and Mrs Noah. Instead they hand craft clay figures, similar to Adam being formed from the dust of the earth by God. Both symbolism use Divine assistance to bring it to life; Pinocchio.

This type of procreation, is not biological, but more like neurological creation; brain forms ego consciousness. It had to do with an upgrade of the human brain's operating system, after the Great Flood; Great uninstall.

Oh, it's way more complicated than that. I've been tracking the Nuwa myth for 15 years. She pops up in Western, Steppe and Eastern cultures. The little clay figures are more appropriately 9 stone eggs. It would just take a few weeks to explain everything of this far traveled diety without coming off as a total crack pot.

As to Noah.... sure. She's a flood myth goddess. Some similarity, but in a sense she made the flood, not rode in the ship with all the animals. And she does it as part of the divine wrath and judgment on A fallen society. The whole earth doesn't flood, just the capital.

Nuwa cult still exists in parts of China. Died out in the west and middle east. They still have close links to the myth in the steppe, but translation issues exist.
