The "Venus of Malta" is a prehistoric figurine discovered on the island of Malta. Dating back to around 3000 BCE, it is made of limestone and stands about 11 centimeters tall. The figurine is characterized by exaggerated features, particularly the breasts and hips, which suggest it may have been a symbol of fertility or femininity. This artifact is part of the Maltese prehistoric culture and reflects the artistic styles of the time. The "Venus of Malta" is often compared to other similar figurines found across Europe, such as the Venus of Willendorf, highlighting the shared themes of fertility and the human form in ancient art.
