	Venus figurines - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Venus figurines is an umbrella term for a number of prehistoric items, mostly in statuette form, of obese or heavily pregnant women from the Aurignacian or Gravettian period of the upper Palaeolithic, found in Europe.
		A relationship has been suggested between the female shape of the venus figurines and the steatopygia of the world's most genetically archetypical humans, the Khoisan.
		Two much older finds are also often categorized as Venus figurines - the Venus of Berekhat Ram, dating to between 800,000 and 233,000 BCE, and the Venus of Tan-Tan, which dates to between 500,000 and 300,000 BCE, the Middle Acheulean period.

	Venus of Lespugue with pictures - gravettien's civilisation
		The Venus of Lespugue, from the so called gravettien period, is thought to date to approximately 21,000 B.C. So, she is even older than the Lascaux cave.
		The stage corresponding to the Venus of Lespugue is the third one, and it's conventionally numbered B0-13.
		So, the Venus is made by the homogeneous repetition of the same oval shape, and these ovals have sizes and curves that are heterogeneous the ones for the others.

	Furs for Evening, but Cloth Was the Stone Age Standby
		In a new analysis of the renowned "Venus" figurines, the hand-size statuettes of female bodies carved from 27,000 to 20,000 years ago, the researchers have found evidence that the women of the so-called upper Paleolithic era were far more accomplished, economically powerful and sartorially gifted than previously believed.
		Scrutinizing the famed Venus of Willendorf, for example, which was discovered in lower Austria in 1908, the researchers paid particular attention to the statuette's head.
		On the Venus of Lespugue, an approximately 25,000-year-old figurine from southwestern France, the anthropologists noticed a "remarkable" degree of detail lavished on the rendering of a string skirt, with the tightness and angle of each individual twist of the fibers carefully delineated.

		Two much older finds are also often categorized as Venus figurines - the Venus of Berekhet Ram, dating to between 800,000 and 233,000 BCE, and the Venus of Tan-Tan, which dates to between 500,000 and 300,000 BCE, the Middle Acheulean period.
		I remember reading, in a basic first-year anthropology survey class, that the Venus figurines maybe be the self-image of the women who created them - "the body as seen by a woman looking down on herself".
		The earliest figurines were made of stone; more recent creations are also made of ceramic, metal, wood, plastic, etc. The earliest figurines are often of pregnant female women, and are called Venus figurines, in reference to their presumed representation of a female goddess, or in any case some connection to fertility.

	Travel to the venus of Dolni with SpiritProject
		Like her "sisters" from other archeological excavations worldwide, the "Willendorf Venus" from Austria, the "Venus of Laussel" and the "Venus of Lespugue" in France she is depicted as a voluptuous woman with heavy breasts and broad hips standing in an upright position.
		And there is another Venus figurine who did not become as famous as her darker colored sister - she is very special, because her face is carved very carefully, and her body is nearly complete.
		Walking back down to Pavlov I find the hidden hints to Venus still being here - as a pictograph she is looking at me from the windshield of a city bus, and the small inn next to my parking place is named "U Venuse", the Venus.
