Cycladic Female Figurine in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Oct. 2007


Marble female figure
Cycladic, Early Cycladic II, Chalandriani type, ca. 2300-2200 BC
Accession # 1977.187.111
The remains of an ancient repair are of special interest. The head was broken from the long thin neck. A channel was cut into the sides of the neck and the head and then filled with lead. This technique was an established means of joining pieces in the first millennium BC. The repair thus may be contemporary with the piece or date from more than one thousand years later.
