Antropomorfna (čovekolika) figurina, pečena glina, Vinčanska kultura, razdoblje neolita, mlađeg kamenog doba, oko 5000-4500 g. pre n.e, pronađena u ostacima praistorijskog naselja na arheološkom lokalitetu Usek na Banjici u Beogradu, prestonici Srbije.
Na pticolikom licu ističu se veliki nos i oči. Naglašene grudi ukazuju da se radi o ženskoj figurini. Linearni ukrasi na telu predstavljaju odeću. Rupice na rukama i glavi su verovatno korišćene za kačenje ukrasa li za kačenje figure na kanap ili vrpcu.

Nažalost, lokalitet Usek na Banjici je pre dve godine nepovratno oštećen tokom građevinskih radova. Iskopana je ogromna rupa duboka 3 metra, pravo kroz ostatke praistorijskog naselja starog 7000 godina. 🤬

The great goddess form Çatal höyük, 6000 BC, sitting on a throne flanked by two felines. She is later known as Matar Kubileya, Kubaba or Cybele. Found at Çatal höyük, 45 kilometers south of modern Konya, Turkey

Later images and iconography in funerary contexts, and the ubiquity of her Phrygian name Matar ("Mother"), suggest that she was a mediator between the "boundaries of the known and unknown": the civilized and the wild, the worlds of the living and the dead. Her association with hawks, lions, and the stone of the mountainous landscape of the Anatolian wilderness, seem to characterize her as mother of the land in its untrammeled natural state, with power to rule, moderate or soften its latent ferocity, and to control its potential threats to a settled, civilized life.

Да ли знате да се крај Ужица налази портал у праисторију? Недалеко од археолошких локалитета Велика и Мала градина пронаћи ћете неолитско насеље СтаПАРК, где можете посетити житеље овог насеља у њиховим домовима од блатног малтера и сламе, питати их шта значе осликани симболи двоструке спирале на њиховим зидовима и окрепити се на извору који истиче из камене фонтане – а потом се и сами опробати у животним навикама из далеке прошлости.

Доживите камено доба.

Весна Пешић (и Винчанска фигурина):
"ПОТРЕБНО је да уздигнемо идеју о ИДЕНТИТЕТУ коју су шарлатани изневерили. То је питање повратка праотачким вредностима. И памћења. Без тога нема ничега. Хелдерлинов чувени стих каже "Ово је тај поноћни час света." А кад се Сунце поново буде појавило, јутро ће припадати нама." 👌

🏺A gold anthropomorphic goddess figurine discovered in a tell near Kushla dere (Kosharitsa), Nessebar Municipality, Bulgaria. Dated to the late Chalcolithic, 4500-4000 BC.

📖 The gold anthropomorphic figurine is among the most intriguing finds from the dawn of gold metallurgy. The image represents a schematic female figure. The eyes are marked by indentations, the arms are bent at the elbows along the body, and the legs are separated in their lower part. Like similar bone and marble figurines, it depicts a stylized representation of the Mother Goddess. It was probably hung or sewn on as an amulet through the holes pierced at the folded arms. The artefact belongs to the period of appearance and development of the earliest gold metallurgy in the world, which became widely known after the discovery and study of the Varna Chalcolithic necropolis.
