Goddess on the Throne

"The Goddess on the Throne" is an artefact dating back to the Stone Age known in history as Neolithic. The great use of stone has given this period its name. Although dating from this time, archaeological excavations were made in the 1950s. This figurine was discovered by chance during the construction of the TERRTORJA textile factory.

The figurine in question represents a female deity, reflecting the cult of the great mother idol preserved in the Pristina Museum. The Kosovo Museum has adapted the image of "Goddess on the Throne" as the logo of the special institution. Moreover, as it is one of Kosovo's most precious archaeological artefacts, it has also been adopted as a symbol of Pristina.
