DescriptionSnake Goddess - Heraklion Achaeological Museum retouched.jpg |
English: Faience figurines of the Snake Goddess. The goddess, or priestess, is depicted with exposed breasts and wearing a rich garment. Her bared breasts suggest her capacity as fertility goddess.
The snakes and the feline on her head are an allusion to her dominion over nature. Knossos.New-Palace period (1600 BC)(An explanation of the reconstruction of this partial statue can be found in w:C.W. Ceram's 1958 book, The March of Archaeology. The photo of this statue was published by all the medias of countries after the statuette was discovered-(w:Arthur Evans of the Knossos diggings). The figure on her head is only one possibility.) |
