The dolls above were made for Yule tree ornaments. I adapted the head shape since the original had a rather small very round head. The original was covered with spirals and other Goddess symbols and came from 43-42 BCE from the Cucuteni culture.
This violin-shaped doll mirrors a terracotta figure from Anatolia's Early Bronze Age II.
This figure also comes from the Old European Cucuteni culture, 4000-3500 BCE.
A lovely torso from (probably) a bird Goddess figurine from Neolithic Anatolia, mid-6th millenium BCE.
The Lengyel culture left us the elegant "Lady of Se," c. 5000 BCE. I have added several different heads as the original has lost hers.
The Goddess shapes below were drawn by my daughter when she was a young girl.
