EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient times - a figurine of a fertility goddess and the mold used to create it. Dating back to the 8th-7th century BC, this clay sculpture is an intriguing glimpse into the religious beliefs and practices of the Bronze Age. The figurine itself exudes an aura of divine femininity, with its delicate features and intricate headdress. Crafted in terracotta, it stands as a testament to the skill and artistry of its creators. The idol represents a pagan deity, possibly Astarte or Ashera, revered for their association with fertility and abundance. Displayed alongside the figurine is the very mold that was used to cast it. This inclusion offers us insight into the meticulous process involved in creating such sacred objects during this era. It serves as a tangible link between past and present, reminding us of our shared human history. Originally discovered at Tel Batash in Israel, this artifact hails from the Kingdom of Judah period - further deepening its historical significance. Its presence evokes thoughts on spirituality, cultural traditions, and societal norms prevalent during that time. Through this photograph by eZev Radovan (out of copyright), we are transported back thousands of years to witness an extraordinary piece of ancient craftsmanship.
