Female Deity (Mother Goddess)

The Female Deity, or Mother Goddess, by an unknown artist, is a small, weathered, dark-colored sculpture. The figure has a head with long hair, a face featuring a nose, mouth, and eyes. The figure has a prominent neck adorned with a collar-like structure. The body is rendered with short, broad shoulders leading down to a narrow, vertical line down the center of the body. The lower portion of the body is wider and skirt-like. The base of the sculpture appears to have a flat, wide foot area. The entire piece shows signs of aging and wear.
