seated goddess

Seated goddess. Culture: Cypriot. Dimensions: H. 6 7/16 in. (16.4 cm). Date: 4th century B.C..
The figurine, a seated goddess of the Kition type, is mold-made and hollow. The back is handmade, flattened, and concave behind the headdress. This figurine may be from the same mold series as accession number 74.51.1589, but it is larger and therefore must be earlier.
