Fragmentary Indus Valley Culture figurine from Mehrgarh, Pakistan.

Terracotta statuette of a naked and a stylized female presumed to be a mother goddess. 


75mm

It is inexpensive as it has been repaired in several places as you can see.

The oldest ceramic figurines in South Asia were found at Mehrgarh. They have been found  in all phases of the settlement and appear even before the local pottery appears. The earliest figurines are quite simple and do not show intricate features. However, they grow in sophistication with time and by 4000 BC begin to show their characteristic hairstyles and typical prominent breasts. Merhghrh is one of the most important Neolithic sites.  It lies on the Kacchi Plain of Balochistan, Pakistan. It is one of the earliest sites with evidence of farming and herding in South Asia.

From an Australian collection acquired in Australia over 25 years ago.

Mehrgarh, Period VII, c. 2800-2600 BC


Price: SOLD GBP
