Object Description
A Western Asiatic Chalcolithic terracotta seated female figure. The features have been stylistically rendered including the round sunken eyes and hooked nose. The female is in a seated position and is wearing a flared skirt from which two protruding legs are visible. Her large arms are situated by her side and are bent at the elbow. A headdress and collar have been applied. Repairs have been made to the arms, leg and collar. A small hole is visible to the reverse from the TL test.
This piece is accompanied with a positive Oxford Authentication thermoluminescence test. Please be aware, the photo on the TL test looks slightly different as it was performed before the repairs.
Date: Circa 3rd millennium BC
