A MARBLE DOUBLE EYE IDOL, CIRCA 3000 - 2000 B.C.
This ancient marble double eye idol, dating from approximately 3000-2000 B.C., represents one of the enigmatic figures often associated with early Near Eastern or Anatolian cultures. The idol is characterised by its simplistic yet striking design, featuring a rectangular body surmounted by a head with two drilled circular eyes, which give the piece its name. The minimalist form and the use of durable marble suggest that this idol may have held significant ritualistic or symbolic importance, possibly serving as a protective figure or a representation of a deity.
