This image is an exact restored replica of the original Snake Goddess image found in Knossos, Crete, by Arthur Evans around the turn of the last century. The original was made of faience around 15 inches tall. There was a second figure, also of a snake goddess or perhaps a priestess, found together in an area of the excavation that Evans called the Triple Shrine. These images date from around 1500 BCE-just prior to the explosion of the volcano Thera and the subsequent earthquakes that wrecked the temple at Knossos.
The Cretan Snake Goddess Statue, designed by Oberon Zell and licensed under the Mythic Images Collection, is approximately 10.5" tall, 7.5" wide, and 2.5" deep. This sculpture is made of designer composite resin and has been hand painted and polished. The color tone may vary.
The Snake Goddess promotes trance and dream time, the sources of transformation. The energy exuded by the snakes of the Cretan maiden exemplify Sexuality, Regeneration, and the Mysterious Otherworld of Spirit Journeying. The Snake Goddess holding two snakes is given a slightly aged appearance.
This Oberon Zell Depiction Of The Cretan Snake Goddess Statue is a remarkable recreation of the ancient artifact, capturing the essence of the original image found in Knossos. The statue's intricate details and hand-painted finish add to its allure, making it a captivating piece that invites viewers to connect with the rich history and symbolism of the Cretan Snake Goddess.
