Head Of A Goddess Wearing A Tall Headdress –
Fragment of an Ancient Terracotta Figurine Depicting a Female Deity
Fragment of an ancient terracotta figurine depicting a frontal female head, probably representing a deity.
The face, with its stylised and elongated features, is surmounted by a remarkable tall ceremonial headdress, arranged in several tiers and richly decorated. This headdress may be compared to the polos or kalathos worn by female deities in the Cypriot world.
Period: Classical to Hellenistic, probably 4th–3rd century BC.
Provenance: Collection of Hovhannes Kalebdjian (1869–1928).
