The statues-menhirs are intricately carved standing stones crafted during the later European Neolithic period. They represent some of the earliest forms of figurative art ever created. A female statue like this one is typically identified by its prominent breasts and/or a large, ornate necklace. In contrast, male figures are often depicted with a weapon. These remarkable standing stones are predominantly found in Western France, Southern France, and Italy.
