Item Details
Description
Seated Mother Goddess (3000–2500 BC)

The Indus Valley civilization was rediscovered in 1920-21 when engraved seals were unearthed in the Punjab province of Pakistan at a site called Harappa, a name which is often used to describe the civilization as a whole. This early Mother Goddess has the large breasts, curled hair, and wide hips classic to the Female figures from Mehrgarh. Part of the Neolithic ‘Venus figurines’ tradition, this figure has links to fertility and procreation. Her hair was probably painted black; brown ochre would have covered the body, and her necklace was probably yellow.
