The Germans were perverts even 40,000 years ago

The 2008 excavations at Hohle Fels Cave in the Swabian Jura of southwestern Germany recovered a female figurine carved from mammoth ivory from the basal Aurignacian deposit. This figurine, which is the earliest depiction of a human, and  one of the oldest known examples of figurative art worldwide, was made at least 35,000 years ago. This discovery radically changes our views of the context and meaning of the earliest Paleolithic art.

he Venus has a short and squat form with a waist that is slightly narrower than the broad shoulders and wide hips. Multiple deeply incised horizontal lines cover the abdomen from the area below the breast to the pubic triangle. Several of these horizontal lines extend to the back of the figurine and are suggestive of clothing or a wrap of some sort. Microscopic images show that these incisions were created by repeatedly cutting along the same lines with sharp stone tools.

The legs of the Venus are short and pointy. The buttocks and genitals are depicted in more details. The split between the two halves of the buttocks is deep and continues without interruption to the front of the figurine where the vulva is visible between the open legs. There can be no doubt that the depiction of oversized breast, exentuated buttocks and genetalia result from the deliberate exaggeration of the sexual features of the figurine. In addition to the many carefully depicted anatomical features, the surface of the Venus preserves numerous lines and deliberate markings.

Now that I look at it again, the Venus looks like a turkey. Maybe the figurine was innocent and modern scientists and researchers are perverting it!

[twerd]

I would.

I think this figurine proves that 35,000-40,000 years ago Germany was  inhabited by black men.

because it looks like a chicken?

For shame

[Flannel Boy]

no because the figurine is very plump.

[Tieno]

bad art

seriously: really cool, I'm always immensely fascinated by prehistory.

[brawndolicious]

Every single tribe of humans back then had venus idols that they worshiped for fertility.  I think that they even made those idols for the same purposes in Rome.  A lot of Renaissance Christian art also features venus' but looking slightly more human (priests couldn't know what boobs really looked like).

[Flannel Boy]

Yeah a lot of cultures have similar Venus statuettes, but the Venus of Hohle Fels is the oldest one ever discovered. That's why it's remarkable.

It's not that surprising though.  For one reason or another, humanity has always worshiped hot women.

Maybe sex is how the first religion actually started?  Like a bunch of cave men made a little sex aide for themselves and when humping it, their moms walked in and so they just claimed it was a goddess of fertility or something.  There's been stupider justifications behind a lot of religions.

The side pic looks like a depiction of a man who has cut the frontal skin off a woman, and drapes it over his own front side

leave it to black people to create chicken with a big set of tits.

i think the entire op should be quoted again just to make sure no one misses it

Those things are found throughout most of Europe. They were among the first of what anthroplogists consider a universal form of expression [between European homosapiens].
