Hittite Goddess This is a large terracotta statue of the godess ASTARTE. Date:2000 BC. Very Tall at 7 inches . Astarte was the female conunterpart to the Phoenician god, Ba'al. As the mother Goddess, Astarte was the deity charged with the safety of children and the prosperity and harmony of the hearth and home. A myth today but certainly a problem and distraction to the ancient Hebrews who fell victim to her charms. This is a great addition for a serious collector of ancient and authentic artifacts.
