Neolithic Terracotta Idol – Ritual Figurine of the Cucuteni-Trypillia Culture

This rare terracotta idol was recovered near the ruins of an ancient Cucuteni-Trypillia settlement, deep in the fertile lands of present-day Ukraine. Hand-molded from clay and fired in primitive kilns, the figurine likely served in household rituals connected to fertility, protection, or ancestral worship.

The stylized human form, with abstracted features, reflects the symbolic language of early agrarian spirituality. Each curve and indentation holds a mystery — possibly used in sacred rites passed down generations before recorded history began.

Perfect for collectors of ancient religious art, Neolithic culture, and artifacts rooted in one of Europe’s earliest civilizations.
