EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of figurines of fertility goddesses and the moulds used to create them, dating back to the 8th-7th century BC. Crafted from clay during the Bronze Age in Tel Batash, Israel, these remarkable artifacts offer a glimpse into the religious practices and beliefs of the Kingdom of Judah period. The intricate details and craftsmanship evident in these terracotta sculptures are truly awe-inspiring. Each figure represents a female deity, exuding an air of divine power and grace. Adorned with headdresses and donning various poses, they embody symbols associated with fertility and abundance. These ancient idols hold immense cultural significance as they were worshipped by communities who believed in their ability to bestow blessings upon those seeking prosperity or desiring children. The statuettes' nudity is also noteworthy, symbolizing purity and vulnerability while emphasizing their connection to nature's life-giving forces. As we delve into this mesmerizing image captured by photographer eZev Radovan, we are transported back in time to an era where pagan deities held sway over daily life. This photograph not only preserves our rich historical heritage but also serves as a testament to human creativity throughout centuries past.
