5400 year old
This 5400 year old statuette of a buxom beauty is in the act of making beer, kneading dough in a strainer over a large jar.
The woman is wearing only a close-fitting, medium-length white skirt and a necklace.
The pale blue shape of which can be clearly seen around her neck.
Her hair is covered by a medium-length wig, with individual locks of hair rendered by separate vertical incisions.
She has a full face with very striking features.
Large downturned eyes, emphasized by heavy eyebrows, a flattened, irregularly shaped nose, and a mouth with a hint of a smile.
Her torso, full breasts and muscular arms give the impression of vitality and strength, but the rest of the body is less carefully modeled.
The beer was prepared in a big jar, using fermented barley bread sprayed with date liquor.
When fermented, the beer would flow from a hole near the base of the jar.
She is from the Old Kingdom, 5th Dynasty, ca. 2494-2345 BC. She now lives in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo.
Boobies & Beer...Even the Ancient Egyptians thought that was a perfect combination
