The pendant was found in one of the Balzi Rossi caves in Italy.
IDK I feel like they might’ve guessed wrong on this one
Is that illustration a joke?
Okay that artist rendition is one HELL of a stretch.
That looks just like some sort of looped earring tbh
The perennial mystery, the dual Nature of women.
If that does not symbolize a woman on the rag I don’t know what does.
It’s missing the arms entirely.
Is it…?
