VENUS OF WILLENDORF REPLICA Paleo Ancient art paleolithic archaeology artifact

Description

A new replica from Occoquan Paleotechnics LLC.  A replica of the paleolithic carving of a female figure found near Krems, Austria in 1908.   For the original, the material used was a non local limestone, and the find had some red ochre on the surface.   Several similar artifacts have been found throughout Europe also dating to the Paleolithic, but this example is the most famous and complete(at 4.4 inches tall).   Estimated to be around 25,000 years old, it was carved by a Paleolithic culture we do not know much about.   There are many theories about what she represents, having such exaggerated features, but this is all speculation, and we can never really know the mysterious culture that this icon came from.   The feet look broken but examination shows they are complete the way it was originally finished.   The head has no facial features, and it is unkown for sure if the pattern there represents a headress or hair style.   The peg shown in the photo is part of photography background only, so the piece does not come with a stand. This replica is made in epoxy, and is a great example of early art in Paleolithic Europe. Buyer is to pay shipping fixed and international buyers are to pay shipping fixed. Check out my
