Idol; Anatolia, Bronze Age, 1st-2nd centuries, 3200-2300 BC. Marble. It has mineral adhesions on the surface. Measurements: 16 x 6 x 0.5 cm. Anthropomorphic idol carved in marble. It is characterised by its fine abstract form with strong contours. It suggests a human form through the use of curvilinear and rectilinear elements. The body is a simple circle, the shape reminiscent of shields, with two pointed shoulders at each end of the lower part of the neck. The neck rises long and tapers as it reaches the head to give balance to the whole idol. Idols of the Kusura type, defined by Colin Renfrew and named after the site of the same name in southwestern Anatolia. They have always been found in burial sites, which indicates that they are pieces of ritual and religious significance. Anatolia, also known as Asia Minor, is a peninsula now occupied by the Asian part of Turkey. During the Bronze Age, the New Hittite Empire was established and reached its peak in the 14th century BC. The empire covered much of Anatolia, northwestern Syria and upper Mesopotamia. After 1180 BC, the empire disintegrated into several independent New Hittite states.
