إمرأة تشاتل‌هويوك الجالسة

إمرأة تشاتل هويوك الجالسة: الرأس هو ترميم، متحف الحضارات الأناضولية[1]

إمرأة چاتل‌هويوك الجالسة (Seated Woman of Çatalhöyük ؛ وأيضاً تشاتل هويوك) هي baked-clay, nude female form seated between feline-headed arm-rests. It is generally thought[2] to depict a corpulent and fertile Mother goddess[3] in the process of giving birth while seated on her throne, which has two hand rests in the form of feline (lioness, leopard, or panther) heads in a سيدة الوحوش motif. The statuette, one of several iconographically similar ones found at the site, is similar to other corpulent prehistoric goddess figures,[4] of which the most famous is the ڤينوس ڤيلن‌دورف.

It is a neolithic sculpture shaped by an unknown artist, and was completed in approximately 6000 BC. وقد نقّب عنها عالم الآثار جيمس ملارت في 1961 في چاتل‌هويوك, Turkey. When it was found, its head and hand rest of the right side were missing. The current head and the hand rest are modern replacements. The sculpture is at the متحف الحضارات الأناضولية في أنقرة، تركيا. زعم ملارت أن التمثال مثـَّل إلهة خصوبة كانت معبودة أهالي چاتل‌هويوك.
