Anatolian Tell Halaf Pottery Female Idol

Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $400**

Western Asia/Near East, Anatolia (central Turkey) or northern Syria, Tell Halaf area, ca. 6500 to 4500 BCE. A fascinating pottery fertility figure depicting a seated woman with voluptuous breasts cradled by her curved arms and wide thighs. She has sloping shoulders which taper inward to a slender neck, and her head has a prominent pinched nose and a pinched coiffure. Thin black lines decorate her body. As early as the 7th millennium BCE, cultures in the Near East began creating organized settlements with highly developed religious as well as funerary practices. The Halaf culture of Anatolia (central Turkey) and northern Syria produced fascinating female figurines like this one. Whether images like these were intended to represent real, ideal, or divine women is unknown. Size: 1.95" W x 3" H (5 cm x 7.6 cm)

Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA, acquired before 2010
