Description

Inside the 19 tombs that formed the necropolar area of Cuccuru is Arrius, female statuettes of a volumetric-naturalistic style were found and whose evidence appears in various locations in the Mediterranean. The discovery of these artifacts inside the tombs suggests their use in a ritual context, also considering the fact that these statuettes were placed in the right hand of the deceased. The most common hypotheses about the interpretation of their meaning concern their link to the name "mother goddess", that is the representation of a guardian deity of the life cycle, of death and rebirth.
