Line 1: Line 1:
The Mother Goddess was a sculpture made by the Gravettians using stone, bone, or ivory to sculpt it.  It seems to have come as an inner vision of motherhood and fertility.  The Mother Goddess is a figure of a woman that seems to be sitting.  This represents the motherhood and it also shows that the Gravettians were quite skilled at making sculptures with the tools that they had.  They also made other sculptures of animals that were very realistic but their greatest success was the Mother Goddess sculpture.
