1. Title: "Late Neolithic Statuettes from Hacilar, North-western Anatolia: A Glimpse into Prehistoric Worship and Art" This evocative image showcases a captivating collection of Late Neolithic statuettes excavated from Hacilar, a significant archaeological site located in north-western Anatolia during the 1961 season. The excavations, led by James Mellaart, Assistant Director of The British Institute of Archaeology at Ankara, unearthed these intriguing figurines during Level VI of the settlement. The Late Neolithic period, marked by the transition from Neolithic to Chalcolithic times, is characterized by the emergence of complex societies and the development of new artistic expressions. These statuettes, with their stylized human and animal forms, provide a fascinating window into the religious beliefs and artistic sensibilities of these ancient communities. The statuettes depict various figures, including young girls, women, and the enigmatic goddess. Their heads, adorned with intricate hairstyles and sometimes wearing elaborate headdresses, suggest a connection to the divine realm. The figurines often hold animals, such as birds or goats, which may represent offerings or symbols of fertility and abundance. The human forms, with their simplified features and expressive postures, reveal the artists' skillful use of clay to capture the essence of their subjects. The statuettes' stylized yet recognizable forms reflect the unique artistic style of the Late Neolithic period in north-western Anatolia. These precious artifacts, now preserved for future generations, offer invaluable insights into the lives and beliefs of the people who inhabited Hacilar thousands of years ago. Their discovery continues to captivate scholars and enthusiasts alike, fueling our curiosity about the prehistoric world and the rich cultural heritage it has left behind.
