The Venus of Dolní Věstonice is a prehistoric figurine discovered in 1925 in the Czech Republic. Dating back to around 29,000 to 25,000 BCE, it is made from fired clay and stands about 11.5 centimeters tall. This figurine is part of the Upper Paleolithic period and is one of the oldest known representations of a human figure. The figurine is characterized by exaggerated features, particularly the breasts and hips, which suggest a focus on fertility and femininity. It is associated with the Venus figurines, a group of similar artifacts found across Europe, indicating a shared cultural significance in prehistoric societies.
