EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Deesse mere" a remarkable statue made of terra cotta dating back to 8000-6000 AD. Originating from Catal Huyuk (Hoyuk), an ancient Neolithic settlement, this artifact is housed in the Museum of Anatolian Civilisations in Ankara, Turkey. The Deesse mere represents an important aspect of prehistoric art and archaeology. It offers a glimpse into the religious beliefs and practices of the time, shedding light on paganism and spirituality during this period. The statue depicts a powerful female figure, possibly representing a goddess or deity worshipped by the community. The intricate details captured in this photograph emphasize the skillful craftsmanship involved in creating such a piece. The delicate features and expressive face bring life to the sculpture, making it feel almost tangible despite its age. As we explore this image, we are transported back thousands of years to witness how our ancestors expressed their devotion through art. This portrait serves as a reminder that even in prehistoric times, humans sought meaning and connection with something greater than themselves. Through archaeological discoveries like these, we gain valuable insights into our shared history and cultural heritage. Such artifacts not only enrich our understanding of ancient civilizations but also inspire us to appreciate the artistic achievements that have shaped human civilization throughout time.
