Ancient Near Eastern Syro Hittite Pottery Beaker - 1900 BC
An unusual Syro-Hittite pottery beaker. Dating to the early 2nd Millennium B.C. This piece sits on a disc-like base with acorn-shaped body and flaring mouth. What makes the piece most unusual are the four applied"masks" that decorate the shoulder of the vessel. They have a distinctive zoomorphic appearance. Especially when viewed in the inverted position, and are perforated longitudinally. Thus, it is possible that the vessel would have been suspended by means of a cord that passed through these perforations. This piece belongs to one of the world's earliest Empires. The Syro-Hittite civilization of the early 2nd Millennium B.C. The Hittites were famous for their skill in building, use of chariots and ironworking. The Hittite empire expanded far enough from its base in modern Anatolia, Turkey, that it eventually came into conflict ... morewith Egypt, under Ramesses II. Syro-Hittite art is noted for its buff earthenware figures, often referred to as idols. There was clearly an appreciation for the abstract representation of human and animal forms, although they were rarely incorporated onto vessels. This vessel is a beautiful representation of Syro Hittite art. Height: 5 inches. Condition: Excellent. Unrestored. Age related encrustations and root markings. Provenance: Ex. British Private Collection. Acquired 1980's. Authenticity All items are unconditionally guaranteed to be Authentic as described.

Ancient Syro Hittite Pottery Near Eastern Horse And Rider Figure - 1150 BC
An ancient near eastern Syro-Hittite horse and rider figure. Dating to approximately 1500 BC. This rare terracotta horse and rider is of highly stylised form. Both the animal and rider are shown with the deeply incised eyes typical of Syro-Hittite figures. With bird-like face and crown of hair falling across the forehead. The rider clings tenuously to the horses neck. The short stubby legs, widely spaced eyes and almost snout-like mouth of the horse make it an abstract, almost comical depiction. Being great horsemen allowed the ancestors of the Syro-Hittites to travel and conquer places far from their remote and rugged homelands in Asia Minor. To represent the importance of this animal in ancient Syrian society. The image of the horse and rider was prominent in art and architecture from the period, often adoring the monumental arches and ... moreruins of their lost cities. Often these were powerful warrior images, however this piece is different; here we have a more touching, human depiction, the scene appears light hearted, almost like a child's toy. Height: 3 ¼ inches. Length: 2 ¾ inches. Condition: Good. Restored from fragments. Provenance: Ex. Royal Athena Gallery. New York, 1966. Subsequently in the collection of a New York City family.

Ancient Syro Hittite Near Eastern Terracotta Fertility Goddess Idol - 2200 BC
An exceptionally well preserved ancient near eastern Syro-Hittite goddess idol. Dating to approximately 2200- 2000 BC. Merging both animal and human elements. This primitive figure is depicted with a distinctive beaked face, elaborate headdress and deeply incised eyes. Shown naked with the exception of a necklace and tied sash around the waist, the short arms and thin legs serve to highlight the hips, which are typically broad for a fertility idol of the period. Though they have been found over a wide area, this example has been preserved in particularly fine condition, most remarkably, the original copper earrings are still in place. There is a strong sense of the supernatural about this enigmatic idol. It is at once mysterious yet familiar. The head is distinctively bird-like; yet the body, necklaces and earrings imbue it with the feel ... moreof a human figure. This fusion of characteristics has led many to conclude that these figures were intended to represent deities, possibly a goddess of motherhood. Indeed they appear to have been commonly buried beneath doorposts, possibly to ensure the fertility of the women of the household. Height: 6 ¼ inches. Condition: Exceptional. Unrestored and with some salt deposits encrusted on the surface above the nose, a reassuring sign of authenticity. Provenance: Ex. Belgian private collection. Acquired 1980s. Authenticity All items are unconditionally guaranteed to be Authentic as described.
