Fertility Goddess Figurine Tell Halaf, Syria C. 5,000 B.C. Figurine:   3 3/4" x 2" Case: 6 1/2" high Tell Halaf , archaeological site of ancient Mesopotamia, on the headwaters of theKhabur River   near modern Raʾs al-Ayn, northeastern Syria . It is the location of the first find of a Neolithic culture.   characterized by glazed pottery  painted with geometric and animal designs. The pottery is sometimes called   Halafian ware.  The site was excavated by German archaeologists between 1899 and 1927. It was a flourishing city from about 5050 to about 4300   BC , sometimes referred to as the Halaf Period. The site was recorded ( c.   894   BC ) as the tributary city-state of Gozan by the Assyrian king Adad-nirari II. A short period of independence ended when, in 808   BC , the Assyrian queen-regent Sammu-ramat (Semiramis) and her son Adad-nirari III sacked the city and reduced the surrounding district to a province of the Assyrian empire. A group of Israelites were deported there in 722 after the capture of Samaria. (Encyclopedia Britannica) This extremely rare and exquiste example of neolithic art was acquired over 32 years ago to augment my art collection.  Complemented by a custom glass and brass display case.
