Lady of Elche. Painted limestone bust; from L'Alcúdia, Spain; 4th century BCE. The famous but controversial " Lady of Elche" (Dama d'Elx in Catalan, Dama de Elche in Spanish) is a polychrome stone bust that was revealed as found by chance in 1897 at L'Alcúdia, an archaeological site that was on a private estate about 2 km, south of Elx (Spanish Elche) (Alicante, Land of Valencia, Spain). The Lady of Elx is generally believed to be Iberian art of the 4th century BCE, or of the Hellenistic or the Roman periods. The bust is usually thought to represent a woman wearing a very complex headdress and big coils on each side of the face. A minority interpretation sees it representing a man.
