The look of the Woman of Wiendorf has been said to resemble what woman from Prehistoric time might have appeared. While on the other hand it has been suggested through time that man may have carved this as a symbol of what the idea woman may have looked. This structure of this piece gives me the idea of…

Has it ever came to mind on how creative writing came to be or ever occurred how one sculpture came to be? Well it began that ancient cultures, such as Stone Age had no way in communicating, but they became creative, they started drawing on walls to tell us stories or when the ancient Egyptian used symbolize to tell laws. As ancient societies lost ways to communicate they found other ways such as telling stories and used documents to tell us what happened as to result they used, creative…

a tendency to begin my response without acknowledging the author. Also, my responses to other students are usually to posts that correlate with my posts. Only twice I have responded to a post with a different opinion than mine: one on the Venus of Willendorf and the other to Etruscan art. However, on one of these I did not defend my opinion, but I seemed to change it altogether. This habit surprised me as I reread my work, especially since the incident happened later in the course, after my…

more specifically in the Paleolithic Era, people seem to acknowledge this because anthropologist have found a great quantity of Venus figurines form this period. Venus Figurines are small statuettes that resembles the female body with slight differences. These statues have enlarged breasts, swollen abdomen, and large buttocks, most of them or at least the “Venus” of Willendorf had the face covered and both arms and legs seem to be cut in half. Women from the Society from the Prehistoric Period…

goal in sight, human nature started to take hold. Within a single generation artists stopped making realistic statues and began to exaggerate the features. Since the most primitive versions, humans have wanted to exaggerate art as seen in the Venus of Willendorf, but now, for the first time in history, we were properly equipped to do…

Sculpture is a form of visual art that has been used throughout human history. It involves the process of taking items, and constructing a three dimensional form. People have been applying this form of art when they wanted to praise their gods, leaders, or heroes. Also when they wanted to display their feelings and desires into their work. Some artists even stick items together randomly just to see what the outcome would look like. Woodcarving is a form of art that is cheap, and easily available…

More than 2.75 million years ago, hominids were using simple stone tools. Eventually, knapping techniques were developed and used to chip flakes from a source or core stone to make spear points and other tools. Creating these required planning the final project in advance, and many forms ended up symmetrical. Thousands of examples of stone works have been found around the globe, demonstrating high degrees of skill and aesthetic awareness even in utilitarian tools. The most impressive spear…

placed onto fire that would bake the clay. That will allow the sculpture to harden. In this form of artwork, the sculpture would be in a sitting position but its knee is touching its chin. Another artwork such as Seated Goddess (Turkey) or the Venus of Willendorf (Austria) would be in a sitting position but without the knee touching the elbow. It looks like a male sitting and you would not find that rarely sitting; unless that figure is sitting on a throne. That indicates power. Just live…

I have no name. I am Homo sapiens sapiens, and I 've helped develop our culture. I have lived through many dark times, known to you as nights. I have no formal written language and am able to be equal in cognition and articulation as you, though this does not hold true for me in my time. My life here is during the time you refer to as the "Paleolithic” period. This is the earliest t and longest age of the Stone Age, lasting from c. 1, 5000,000 to c. 8000 B.C. We actively developed and utilize…
