Gumelniţa zoomorphic figurines from the collections of the Bucharest Municipality Museum

  • TITLU în română: Figurine zoomporfe gumelniţene din colecţiile Muzeului Municipiului Bucureşti
  • Subiect: The zoomorphic figurines belonging to the Gumelniţa culture (5th millennium BC) are insufficiently studied. This article presents some of the figurines from the collections of the Bucharest Municipality Museum. Most of them were discovered at the Vidra tell, located on the valley of the Sabar river, a site which was researched since the interwar period by Dinu V. Rosetti. The figurines are examined by taking into consideration several aspects: modelling, morphology and also the affiliation to some wild or domestic animal species. The present batch of figurines falls well into the Gumelniţa art patterns, one characteristic being the schematization of the representations. Several figurines though display a more realistic modelling approach.
