Venus of Willendorf. The Venus of Willendorf, now known in academia as the Woman of Willendorf, is a 11.1-centimetre (4.4 in) high statuette of a female figure estimated to have been made between about 28,000 and 25,000 BCE. [1]
In 1926 Bayer found the Venus II from Willendorf in a hole which had been dug into the sequence of cultural layers by clandestine excavators. In 1927 he made a systematic excavation on this spot. In the course of this excavation he found the evidence of a deep pit which was dug from layer 9 down to layer 5.
