Ankara june 2011 7051.jpg

This is an enthroned goddess, two large cats on either side of her, she herself is in the process of giving birth. From the sixth millennium BC. From Catalhöyük, one of the earliest cities in the world.

I think I may stop taking new pictures of this statue, that is almost emblematic for the museum.
