Venus of Lespugue
|
|
|
The Venus of Lespugue
was found in 1922 by
Saint Perrier in the
cave of Les Rideaux.
The sculpture is made
out of mammoth ivory
and measures
5.75"high. The
breasts are
deteriorated but they
have been restored in
this reproduction so
that we can
appreciate the
original look of the
statue. She
represents the Earth
and it's fertility
and the continuation
of life, The Mother
Goddess, the
universal female
principle even if it
is in its most
primitive
conception.Upper
Paleolithic female
figures such as this
one are found from
the Pyrenees
mountains to Siberia,
indicating that East
and West were once
united in honoring
the Goddess. The vast
majority (over 90%)
of human images from
30,000 to 5,000 b.c.
are female. Women
were recognized as
the life-givers and
sustainers and they
were revered as
priestesses.
