(The Lady from Čikat)

Sažetak
The book presents a reinterpretation of the small anthropomorphic statuette from Čikat on the island of Lošinj. The unique find is the only ceramic figurine discovered on the territory of Iron Age cultures on the eastern coast of the Adriatic. The Lady from Čikat is a frontal, abstract and motionless figurine. Due to her poise and gesture, her attributes, a characteristic hairstyle and indicated esthetical elements, which might have been interpreted as jewelry, as well as her respectable or sacral nudity ; it should be treated as an figurine equipped with a part of the specific attire used at that period in the stylistic concepts of anthropomorphic art. Consequently it is compared with prominent examples of ceramic figurines which with their forms, schematicall and symbolical designations demonstrate a close connection to the art of the Etrurian part of the Orientalizing koiné and its spread during the 7th century BC. Its characterization, as a part of a ritual ex voto object, is comprehended in a sense of a mourning priestess which lamenting kept late hours and in this way created the eternity of the burial ritual of an important deceased. According to the analogies, the Lady from Čikat could have been deposited in a local, but rich and important female tomb.
