THE YOUTHFUL VENUS
Second largest figurine was the "Youthful Venus" which is also the only one with almost defined facial features.
She was made about 8 8000 B.C. - and she is 20 centimeters tall!



Her body is healthy and curvy, her face round, her eyes big, and she has marked hairstyle, which is simply cut in with a tool; it is made of three simple lines, making it easily recongizable as straight hair tied back.
Her anatomy simply speaks of youth, health and fertility, however, it is one of the figurines found in a grave next to two bodies; one skeleton of a man, and one of a woman, whose bones have slight damage and scratch marks made with stone tools.
