Figure of a Fertility Goddess #210897408
Description
Carved from the local limestone of Cyprus, this female figure is one of the largest examples of cruciform cross-shaped statues from the Chalcolithic period. In Cypriot art, the female form is often associated with fertility and childbirth, and this figure with her flattened thighs appears to be squatting in a birthing position.
