Description
This shrine is broken from its original context (a larger clay structure), that was probably intended for a fertility goddess.
Two identical nude female figurines made in the same deep mold were applied to his facade. They are pregnant and hold their breasts in their arms. Black paint marks their eyes, hair and pubic triangle.
ca. 11-10th Century BC
