Abstract

This brief orientation to the study of figurines with a succinct outline of the comparative method addresses the importance of iconographic analysis of the figurines. The contribution also highlights figurines in Judah (and Yehud, as the area is known in the Achaemenid period), puts into perspective the disproportional emphasis on gynomorphic figurines, and addresses figurine meaning.
