The eneolithic era, also known as the Copper Age, holds a treasure trove of fascinating artifacts that provide insight into ancient civilizations. One such artifact is the feminine stelae statue made of sandstone, representing a Carpathian stylized goddess. This exquisite piece showcases the artistic prowess and reverence for femininity during this time. Moving on to Spain, we find ourselves at the archaeological site of Los Millares in Santa Fe de Modujar, Almeria. Here, we discover a Bell Beaker from the eneolithic period - an intriguing vessel that reflects the craftsmanship and cultural significance of this era. As we delve deeper into history, we come across megalithism during the Bronze Age at Los Millares. The ruins found here in Santa Fe de Mo serve as a testament to human ingenuity and architectural marvels of their time. Idols representations of ancestors are another captivating aspect culture. These idols were believed to embody ancestral spirits and played an essential role in religious practices and rituals. One remarkable example is an anthropomorphic stela sculpted during the Chalcolithic period in Spain's Eguilaz region. This sculpture not only showcases exceptional artistry but also provides insights into spiritual beliefs held by our ancestors. Continuing our journey through time, we encounter dolmens like Aizkomendi Dolmen in Spain. These megalithic structures from the Bronze Age stand tall as enduring symbols of human perseverance and engineering brilliance. Amongst these ancient relics lies a flask-shaped vase with intricate designs - yet another testament to eneolithic craftsmanship and attention to detail. Venturing beyond Spanish borders brings us to Bulgaria's Varna excavations where an enigmatic symbolic mask was unearthed. This mask offers glimpses into ceremonial practices or perhaps even shamanistic traditions prevalent during this era. Lastly, we encounter a cylindrical alabaster idol with a meticulously depicted face from Estremadura.
