Text Appearing Before Image:
^ (Plate VI). \ female statuette, recalling somewhat that discoveredat Brassempouy, but more complete, comes from the caveof Baousse-Rouss6 at Mentone. It is sculptured in ayellow slightly translucent steatite, and shows head, trunk,and thighs. The head is oval in shape, but no facialfeatures are shown. The forehead is retreating, and athick mass of hair falls on the neck much like that of somearchaic Greek statues (Fig. 53). Three or four otherstatuettes are said to have been found at Mentone, butgreat scepticism has been expressed regarding their authen-ticity and antiquity.^ At Willendorf, on the left bank of the Danube, about ^ Bas-Relief i Figuration Humaine de Iabri sous roche de Laussel (Dordogne), par G.
